480 info centre poor illumination
Hi all
My 92 480 ES info centre seems to work well in that it gives out values I believe, but the illumination is very poor. The rheostat does its job but the level of lighting is useless in daylight, the rest of the dash lighting is perfect. I've heard that these centres can be troublesome but my low miles, excellent condition 480 deserves a bit of tlc. Any thoughts ? |

There's a special halogen lamp behind the info centre. Only available through the stealer. Replace it and your problem is prob. solved. Open the link below, click on body and interior and than on replacing dashboard bulbs. The biggest bulb is the halogen one. Best is to replace all the bulbs behind the dash while your at it.
