Need Help

[Jim smith]

I bought an Overthread grille about 8 months ago. The grill has five amber lights in the grill. Two of them burnt out and one other is partially out. I contacted Overtread several times to get replacements and have gotten no where. Anyone know where I can get replacement lights? The lights in the grill are 3"3/8" long by 7/8" wide. I would like to have them in red but ill take anything right now.

With some searching, you can probably find a comparable light on Amazon or eBay. Many states only allow forward facing red lights on emergency vehicles.

Does the backplate looks like it can separate? May just be able to repair this.

No it is completely glued I broke one already trying to separate it. Even heated it up in an oven.

Amazon these might be them?

I've opened similar lights before, although it's tedious and takes time. Try an OLFA knife - Thin blade to score away at the glue until it separates. May be worth a shot.

If the light is not turning on at all, it may just be an issue where the wires are soldered to the PCB.

Think I found a replacement light on AMAZON. Let's see how it works out.

Alittle dremeling, but I got them to fit and think they are a huge improvement. Amazon came through again.
