Dash panel bulbs

Got any questions about the BMW's R1200RT/R1250RT's onboard audio, Bluetooth or the Electrical system?

Dash panel bulbs

Post by Doctor T »

Just noticed the bulbs on the rev-counter side of the clocks seem a little dim. Are these bulbs replaceable or do i need to solder new chips in?.

Looks like you need a new instrument cluster #1.

I know K series and newer R series use normal dash bulbs so i thought an 2007 may be the same. If not the soldering iron comes out
