W124- Bulb for Aircon and Headlight switches/knobs - by npk
One of the aircon switch was fitted with a BRIGHTER bulb in my 124 230TE. After about 5 mins drive(at max brightness), the knob was so hot that it burnt my finger.
I realize that this is NOT good for the knob. Close inspection, the heat from the bulb has melted the knob(tapi sikit aje).
Keras Jaya sold me 3 pcs(the last 3 pcs that they have, I nak 5 pcs tuk spare) only. It is rated at 0.4W. I will fit the bulb soon and see if 0.4W is OK or still too hot. 0.4W bulb kecil mahal...$5/pc.
So if you have a knob that "burns", bring the brightness down to avoid knob kena melted. You will need to replace the bulb as soon as possible.
