vectra digital display - bradders
i've a 99 vectra and something has happened to the display that gives the temp/time radio station i dont have the on board computer display just the standard fit one

it looks like the display has stopped working but on inspection you can see it's still ok its just the back light that illuminates has blown or whatever causes it to be lit up the amber colour it normally is --

is this a common/simple fault to rectify or is it a garage type fault ??

pleasehelp -- i love seeing the temp rising sitting in hold ups on the M6

Instructions here on how to get the display out to change the bulbs.

Goto homepage.ntlworld.com/cavweb/misc/ and scroll down the list until you find "veccyclo.doc". (It's almost at the bottom of the page). If you haven't got MS Word, it should still open with MS Wordpad.

You don't need to go as far as removing the speedo housing; just the cowling that covers the radio display and speedo.

ps, as previously mentioned, you don't need to press the 'return' key when you get to the end of each sentence as the text will automatically word wrap ;o)
pps, I've reformatted your text to remove the carriage returns.
