Sorry to disagree, David. It's a light bulb. When these puppies were built, there was no such thing as a blue LED, or a white one. You could substitute a blue LED now by calculating the proper value of resistor and substituting it for the existing one -- solder to the resistor leads and then clip out the old resistor. If you want the formula to calculate the resistor, let me know. david At 23:23 3/31/2000, David Marshall wrote: >The "indicator" is a white LED with a blue cover over the top of it. >Basically the 12V from the highbeam goes to a resistor and then to the LED David Beierl - Providence, RI http://pws.prserv.net/synergy/Vanagon/ '84 Westy "Dutiful Passage" '85 GL "Poor Relation" |
