  • VDO gauges

    Posted by Fred on December 6, 2012 at 10:41 am

    Hi PC,


    Is it possible to replace the light bulb in the oil pressure
    dash gauge? Are there replacement bulbs available at NAPA or somewhere else?

    Thanks for the help.

    The 2 1/16″ VDO gauges do have replaceable bulbs.

    There is a manual available from Prevost, AS/R-T, Owner”s Manual Le Mirage XL, Factory-Prepared Conversion-Ready Luxury Motorcoach.

    I suggest you order a copy. Many questions can be answered with the manual. Keep a copy next to the drivers seat.

    Back to the bulbs……..page 5-26 contains a chart of bulbs supplied by Prevost.

    Oil pressure is not called out speciffically, but is possibly covered under “other” and indicated to use prevo#560144 or SAE 1820, 1.6 candle power 24 volt.

    Thank you Jim, I appreciate the info. I didn’t pull the gauge out completely but I took a look at it from behind and I wasn’t sure if you could open it up and get to the bulb. Yes, I need to get a manual and I will do that too.

    Thanks again.

    Fred, there are other larger and more comprehensive manuals also available from Prevost in hard copy, large note book form. I am sure you know the manuals are also available on line from Prevost for free. There is access to them from this site.
