The backlight on the LCD display of
our car radio has failed. I guess it's
the backlight -- I'm not even sure of
terminlogy. At any rate it allows you
to read the panel in the dark. When it
was working, its brightness was variable
and was controlled by the same pot
that varied the other dashboard lamps.
A search of newsgroup threads about
repairing such things suggests that
it's just an incandescent bulb or two
behind the panel that need(s) replacing.
Is there any reason to fear that the
backlight for this radio might be
more complicated and/or hard to obtain?
