Default '89 Climate Control Light Bulb

Where do I get one of these, and what the heck is it?

I have the auto climate control on my 89.

I am guessing a light bulb is burned out, since its dark in one spot with the lights on, and works fine.

Anybody know what type it is and where I could get one?

Thanks in advance.

This may be a tough one. If your's is the same as my '96 I can tell you how to get the control head out of the dash, disassemble it and remove the bulbs. However my service manual does not have a list of the replacement bulb that I can find. This link is a summary of how I removed and disassembled my control head from the dash

According to my '89 FSM, the Air Conditioner/Heater Controls lamp is a trade #37. I'd check at a local auto parts store first. Hopefully it's a standard, low intensity bulb.

Thanks Tonymax.

#37!
Had to go to three stores to get it. One fixed!

Got a bulb out on my 98 blazer too. Bulbs are soldered into the board on that one. I bet they are soldered in on the 96 vette too.
May not be so easy....

The climate control bulbs are not soldered in on a '96. They are inside the climate control box. After removing the control box and opening it up you need a small screw driver to turn the bulb a quarter turn to remove it from the circuit board it is mounted on.
