Where can you find replacement bulbs?

If you do go in there and replace all the bulbs, DO NOT, DO NOT, forget to pull out the "service light" bulb and put a piece of electrical tape on the hole. I should have done that on my 850 but only thought about it after I put it all back together.

Good Luck!

Look through the faqs and I am sure you will find what you need. You need to pull the upper dash pad and replace the burned out bulb in the cluster.

There are instructions on how to get at the dash lights on the 850 on Bay 13 under "trim." It won't be exactly the same on the S70, but it'll be similar. Rule 308 is right, you'll need to lift the dash pad to access it.

Also...wise to replace ALL of the bulbs while you're in there. If one just went, others aren't far off. Replacing those bulbs is (relatively) cheap, and you probably won't enjoy going in there to replace another in a week/month/year.
