What bulb goes in the heater controls light socket?
My light bulb is missing from the heater controls. I unplugged the grey wire that leads to the socket only to find it empty.
Its different then the dash size. Thanks! |

I found that BA9S style bulbs fit and work. They make LED ones too.
Trouble I'm having is my bulbs burn out after 20 min of installing them? Should I be using something other than 12v? Is there a resistor somewhere? Not that I need the light, but it's there so I'd like to have it work. |

Does the gray wire head to the fuse box and inserted in “cluster”. I have a gray wire that is cut and my light that goes to heater is cut at base.

Thank you VetteVet. I am currently switching my cluster from 3 hole to 7 hole and have read and screen shot several of your conversations. You my friend are invaluable to this site. Thank you for your expertise on these wonderful C10 trucks that we all love.

Re: What bulb goes in the heater controls light socket?
resurrecting this post - I have 1445 bulbs (2) of them in my a/c - heater control. Initially I thought I had one burnt out, but upon really close inspection I could (barely) tell it was working! Yes, they are both really dim. The manual shows 1895 bulb, which I know are more watts/lumens and somewhat larger. Do they really throw that much more light to illuminate this control panel?
I'm surprised there are not any photos of dash panel in low light conditions to show the illumination of gauge panel, and of course this control panel. Are people satisfied with their a/c - heater controller with apparently 1895s? Perhaps a change to LEDs? thanks! |

Here's mine. The camera makes it look a lot brighter than I think it is in real life, but you can see how bright the gauges are for comparison. I stuffed another bulb socket in the blank hole on the passenger side of the ac control panel, so I have two working for me. I think it helps a bit, but it's still pretty dim.

The AIR trucks take two bulbs. Heater only, takes one bulb.

I bought a box of 10 #1895 bulbs on Amazon for $6.56 - thought I'd share with local friends if they are in need too.

I can assure you the other poster and I meant no harm. Could be the chances of the board providing meaningful advice just went down exponentially. Cheers. |
