SX-990 Pointer Bulb

[citymech]

The tuner pointer on my SX-990 doesn't light up, and I can't even see the bulb. It looks like I may have to remove the pointer to replace the bulb, so I'd like to have a bulb on hand before I start the job. Does anyone know what bulb I need and a good source to buy a bulb?

Thanks.

Look for "grain of wheat" bulbs. Hobby stores that carry model train parts will likely carry them, I got mine at a HobbyTown. Here's a previous thread with the part number:

Thanks. That thread has all the info I need. Funny how nothing came up when I searched for it.
