Hello everyone. I just found this site while trying to research the C5 I bought last month. I have learned a lot so far, but I have a problem I was hoping someone could help me with. The light for the gear indicator beside the shifter on my 2002 doesn’t work. It is somewhat annoying at night because I have to cut the interior light on so I can see to put it in Drive. I have only had the car for a month and it wasn’t working when I bought it. I thought I would ask for suggestions. I didn’t know if it could be a grounding problem or just a bulb that has burned out. If it is the bulb I was wondering if there was a link on how to get to the bulb to change it, and where I can buy a replacement bulb. I appreciate any responses because they could save me a lot of cussing and potential breaking something.

Sounds like a bulb but I have no idea how you get to it. maybe some one will chime in later today.

Thanks

Thanks for the replies. I finally found some info in a post about replacing interior lights with LEDs on another forum where someone included pics and instructions on how to take the plate over the bulb off. To get everything apart to that point I printed instructions on how to change the shift boot from vetteessentials.com. I can't remember where I found the suggestion to use vetteessentials.com, but the instructions from there were very helpful. Everything went quick and easy, which surprises me. Thanks again for reading.

I take it it was just the bulb? glad to hear you got it fixed.

Just the bulb. Now I can concentrate on giving it a good detailing.
