a/c control unit

[2000 Z71 Tahoe]

i used the 194 4-LED for the gage cluster.

also i used the #74 LED's for the heater control that were $1.19. i dont remember the name of them but the were for sure $1.19.

Thanks, That helps me a TON. I really like what you did with your dash, great job. Cant hate me for wanting the same thing haha. Do you know if you can replace the lights to the 4x4 push buttons, light switch, and the power windows/locks? Id really like to make all of these match (not a big rainbow fan with all the different colors)

Be careful on removing the bulb in the headlight switch. I took mine out and then turned the switch. Apparently, they built the switch so that once you take the twist lock base out, the whole switch comes apart if you mess with it. I did it outside and was searching for tiny springs and ball bearings on the ground.

I suggest you take it inside, and do it over a baking pan, just in case.

Thanks for the info. Now does that take the same 74 bulb or 194 or is it something completly different.

damn i wish some1 would do this for me. i would love red leds in there but that sounds like too much work. =)

i pulled appart the 4X4 switch and those bulbs are not replaceable. i do not know about the window switches. if you have rear A/C like me the switch on the froot roof and rear roof are replaceable with the same #74 bulb.

i did not know that the headlight switch had a light??

i guess the one in my Tahoe and my brother Silverado are burned out.

my brother has red bulbs (Not LED's) in his gage cluster and red LED's in his heater control and it looks real good. he is going to put the LED's in his gage cluster when he gets the money.

if you would like i could get some pictures of Red lights?

Is the rear air controls front/back hard to get apart to replace those? You know how many i would need for that. Just 1 a piece? Not that im lazy, i just want to order all of tem at once from superbrightleds.com instead of getting some then having to order more then getting some then having to order more.

there are 2 bulbs in each of the controls. they are the #74 bulbs.

4 in dash heater control

2 in rear A/C controls

2 in rear seat rear A/C controls

Going to work on this on my 97 yukon, a few bulbs are out anyway, sounds like a good excuse to get some LEDs in there.

I was working on the Yuk today, and noticed something, perhaps someone here knows and can save me the trouble to hunt down a solution.. The headlight switch light, to the left of the steering column... mine has a very small light, took it to the local autozone/advanceautoparts stores with zero luck.. it seems to be a very particular bulb, I didn't snap a picture of it.. it isn't a wedge.. Anyone else notice or have this issue yet?

Sorry for thead hi-jacking, but this seems semi-on-topic.

Pull the bulb out of the plastic Toshiba V-2 socket. It should be a #74 type bulb.

Alright, so you just have to take the wire/leads from the bulb and un hook them from the socket, then pull the bulb, and fish the 74 type bulb's wires back in there. etc. ?

 

[CRXMotorsports]

I actually ended up at radio shack, purchased their part number 272-1141 mini lamp [12V] I had to cut the wires/insulation away, but i put it in the socket, and it worked right away! Now off to replace all the interior lights and dash lights, thinking I will just go with a bright clean white throughout.

Does changing the gage lights out effect the dimmer? Will it still function?
