Yamaha CR-420 relamping question

Break Glass, Smoke Lucky
My CR-420 had no illumination, and an exchange with Dave the lamp man revealed that I need 6 plus the dial lamp for 7 total.

However I have the cover off and can only find the dial lamp and 2 lamps for the meter.

Can anyone tell me what I'm looking for?

thanks!

Hi,

3 lamps total--2 at the meter and one at the movable dial--see the lower left of the photo (green and white wires with the shrink tubes where connected into the existing wires). Lamps are 12V 60mA, but 14V 80mA (or similar, will work).

It's a real easy fix--good luck!!
 
Perfect, thanks for the confirmation. Is this a great board or what!

This was my first time inside a yammie. Impressive build quality, I must say. I was surprised to see the double drive shafts for the rotary switches though.

SO all I have left is to tune the idling current, clean the switches, and button her up.
 
Yes, the Yamaha CR-420 is a very nice little receiver--I've had the chance to clean-up, I think, about 5 or 6 of them. It has most of the features of the 620 with the footprint of the 220.
 
oh ok, a 420 just sold a few 'miles' from you yesterday....I was thinking 'wow, thats purty quick'
