  • Dash Lights; Ceiling Lights

    Posted by Ronald on September 5, 2020 at 7:17 pm

    Question one: The lights for the Primary and Secondary air gauges have gone out. How are the bulbs replaced.

    Question two: I have 23 halogen ceiling lights that put out great light but they also put out a lot of heat. What are my options for replacing these lights. Pictures attached.

    Jon and / or Tom, I am not receiving notifications of updates to my posts although I check the box to be informed of answer.

    Ron, I bought some LED puck lights and various bulbs from Amazon, lots of options and reasonably inexpensive. No more incandescent lighting in mine.

    I’ve been very happy with these. They replaced every puck light on my bus with no surgery required:

    Looks like the ceiling lights are covered. To replace gauge lights lift the panel from its place by removing all the screws in the perimeter, and tip it toward you. The gauges have lights that are inserted into the side of the gauges.

    You likely can get them from Prevost or just do a search on the internet. I cannot remember for sure, but I think they are 24V.

    Check the ceiling lights. They might be 24volt. 12volt replacement bulbs last only a couple seconds.

    New Prevost owners should replace all the incandescent ceiling lights ASAP. These lights are very effective heaters!!!!!

    I found my Prevost original build wiring diagrams. My coach interior lights are 24V, just a few lights are 12V. Looking at Amazon now for 24V replacement puck lights for the interior.

    From the Prevost electrical and wiring diagrams I have identified the proper bulbs for the dash and have ordered from Prevost. Thanks everyone for the responses.

    Exterior Compartment, except engine, Bulb, Prevost PRTNO 562278, 24V/10W

    Other Instrument, Prevost PRTNO 560144, SAE 1820 (24V)

    Docking, Prevost PRTNO 561882, H3 (OSRAM), 48700 NARVA, 21V/24V, 70W

    Engine Compartment, Prevost PRTNO 560601 SAE 456, 24V 2 c.p.

    I would really like to change the docking lights to LED. I believe I saw a PC post about that last year.

    Hope everyone on PC is well and safe, and if traveling, protecting yourselves.

    Hi Ron,

    Most of the docking lights use a bulb called a loop festoon. Match the voltage and length with an LED bulb and you are good to go.
