Title: Instrument lighting TCS
Post by: kram350kram on Wednesday,May 26, 2021, 07:17:56 PM

In the TCS instrument wiring there are 6 screw in bulbs with metal sockets for each instrument and then a black plastic insulated mini light bulb socket. Is this single black socket for a factory radio? One light in the wiring diagram is identified as "fascia"?  Thanks in advance

I think that's for the crash pad light to light up the heater/defroster controls. See attached photo.

Thank you. Car is apart, redoing wiring and I have no experience with an Europa so basic questions, like where stuff goes/belong seem unavoidable.
