Interior handle LED

Hi Guys,


Does your drivers interior handle have the orange LED glow?

I think my bulb is dead on the drivers one & any links on how to get to this bulb?



Cheers

Could be broken if the door panel was removed, I did that to mine, have to hot glue it back together. You'll have to pull the door panel, once you get it pulled from the door make sure you unplug the wire and you'll be good to go. It's a real simple fix.

Do you have the glow on the other three handles?

I also need to take care of mine for my front two doors. Back doors work, front are burned out or disconnected. I have window clips to install someday, so would like to know what the bulbs are to have them on hand for that day.

The bulb is an LED so it's pretty unlikely the bulb is the problem. As mentioned above, if the door panel was removed (for say a regulator) the little thin light tube that the bulb is mounted on most likely got snapped. Easy fix, pull the door panel and... some super glue will fix you right up.
