97 850 wagon-Radio control knobs - lost backlights

Post by sanfabian »

I have a '97 850 wagon and have lost backlight illumination on all my radio control knobs (except on the tone (bass,treble.fade) up/down control knobs). Is there a way I could replace a broken bulb inside perhaps? I was able to pull the radio out of the front panel.

Thanks for any help!
