Rich....
I just replaced the meter lamp in my TR751A, and got another 751A with dead bulbs... so I'll be doing it again. You can play games with LEDs and dropping resistors, or jam something from Radio Shack in there... Or order the correct bulbs from Kenwood. The correct bulbs have a thin green cover over the bulb to provide the correct color. Part number from Kenwood parts (east or west, find them on Kenwood's website) is 830-0845-05. Order a few, and stash them away. They are used in a few other Kenwood rigs. The front panel comes off easily. You need to remove the knobs, and if I remember correctly, there is a hex nut (metric) on the tuning knob. After you take the top and bottom shells off the radio, and the knobs, there are a few screws on the left and right that allow you to tilt the front panel forwards to get to the bulbs. Good Luck!!! ....Dave "Richard Donahue" wrote in message ... I have a Kenwood TR-751A and the light is out. The LCD and meter isn't lit up anymore. I believe the last trip I took it was knocked out. I took the front cover off and couldn't see a bulb anywhere. Does anyone know where it's located and what I can use to replace it? You can e-mail me at Thanks in advance. Rich KCØCHJ |
