    1100EZ guage question

    Does your oil temp guage light up? Seems odd and aesthetically unbalanced that mine does not

    Light bulb ?

    I would PM Pos. Hes been inside the gauges and knows what to look for.

      The guages have a plastic shell around them. When you unscrew the back it will expose the backs of the guages. at that point you will have access to all of the sockets that hold the bulbs for the guages.

      If you have never changed them, I would suggest just buying all new bulbs and replacing all of the same time. It is a bit of a pita and unless you like going through the motions...

      I could not find a stock replacement so just got them from Flatout.

        thanks guys, so I will assume that the oil light should light up, since that was not really answered directly . Guess I'll add this to the things to do list! sigh.

          Probably a safe assumption

                Ive lit up 3 sets of brake rotors on my EZ. If you get them too hot they warp very EZ.
