Having cleaned and tested all the bulbs and PCB contacts in my centre console switchpacks I am down to my last 3 spares (used) for the centre switchpack.

I have been able to source a supply of new OEM bulbs for the heater control switchpack but not for this one.
The bulbs are the tiny ones with a blue "condom" shown in the photo.
Does anyone know a part number and/or a supplier?

Steve,


Yours look a little different to mine, which are earlier (1997), where the wires from the bulb are wound round the plastic base and provide the electrical contact.
So ............. I used these :


| Wire Terminal Filament Indicator Lamp, Clear, 12 V, 60 mA, 5000h |


Would they work with yours too ? (You have to re-use the condom, but that's OK for this particular purpose.)

 

Hi David.
I think the ones you are describing are these: HEATER CONTROL PANEL SWITCH BACKLIGHT BULB / BUTTONS - Jaguar XK8 XJ8 XJ6 XJR XK | eBay

These are the ones that fit the heater switchpack which I have managed to get a full set (there are in fact 3 different part numbers (switch, red and blue temp switch and LED) - the ones for the trac/hazard are different in that they don't have the long bare wires that you can (with difficulty) loop around the bulb holder. The bulbs I'm after are tiny little affairs seemingly internally soldered to the bulb holder contacts and very delicate
