Radio Light

I'm working on rewiring my truck and I've run into a question I can't find an answer to. I wired up my original AM radio on the bench and I'm so happy it worked!! Question is: is the radio supposed to have a light? If it is, I will want to replace the bulb, but I don't want to tear the radio apart if there's no light to replace.

Re: Radio Light

The bulb is in a long holder that plugs into the center of the radio on the back side it should have a single white wire going into it.
Just pop it out and put a good bulb in ezpz.

Re: Radio Light

Another note I think the light only comes on when the radio is on. Does not come on with the light switch.

Agreed, at least for my '69.
