Must say, they are not the most complicated controls in the world of car heaters, if a light does go out. Hot or cold; speed 1, 2, 3; Fresh or recirculated air; vents. Monsieur Le Grenadier

Open bonnet location heater control valve and manually push it to the cold side. Then you get only cold, if you have aircon it’s lovely Searching for my first Defender...and started just as Covid hit, so talk about timing.
5 months after starting the search I found it, and here is the details |

Guys do you know what the part number is for the heater slider bulbs? I ordered the LEDs from this eBay seller a year ago and they fitted fine. A year later they need replacing again. I've repeated the order but the bulbs sent this time are shorter and don't work. Click image to enlarge I'm trying to find another seller with the right bulbs but i'm not sure what to search for Does anyone know the official size or part number for these? |

Jim-Bean:
See here: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/221873688761?ss...2749.l2649 I went LED on those once and they were no good, they failed in less than a year and lasted less time than even these ones. I have these and they fit perfect. I’m sure they won’t last 6 months like the LED ones did. Diesel$ Live$ Matter. ⛽️🛢️👨🔧🧰⚙️ RED, WHITE & BOOST! 🇬🇧 |

Thanks
The LED ones seem to have a really short life span |

Yes, they are a real disappointment which is a pity. I was hoping it would positively be the opposite and last longer.
They are simply poor quality. Diesel$ Live$ Matter. ⛽️🛢️👨🔧🧰⚙️ RED, WHITE & BOOST! 🇬🇧 |

Interesting reading this thread.
I purchased some replacement LED's for the dash but found them to be very directional and they do not light up everywhere they should. I changed them recently as part of upgrading the centre console to fit a double DIN head-unit. I've just ordered some of the LED's from the link earlier in the thread which looking for the picture posted, look much better. I've also ordered some standard bulbs, just in case it does look rubbish, I have options. May end up going back to bulbs, we'll see. So I've noticed that the headlight level switch on mine is not illuminated and I seem to recall it was. So just seeking confirmation here and I guess if it was illuminated then it'll be a case of buying a new switch? Cheers ... |
