How do you Remove/Replace those Itty Bitty Bulbs?
One of the bulbs is burnt out behind the HVAC Control Panel. I was able to get the bulb socket out of the panel but I can't seem to be able to get that little bulb out of the socket. What'* the trick into doing this without breaking the bulb. Also, does anyone know the bulb # that I need to replace it with? I can't seem to find this info in the FSM. Thanks!

Yes, I got the knobby controls. I went outside again to try One Mo' Time. I was able to PULL out the bulb w/o destroying it. The problem was that with the cool weather (50 degrees F) I could not grip the bulb. The solution was a piece of rubber tubing that I placed over the bulb and I was then able to pull it out. Now the question is, what is the replacement bulb #. Thanks.
