Led Tank and clock displays

[jr]

I have a 1988 wbwl walk thriugh bath. in the overhead cabinet next to the
refrigerator is a panel that contains controls for genny odor controls. both
leds have gone bad. i am looking for replacements Any Ideas?

If you have electical knowledge and are comfortable working with it, you can buy L E Ds at Radio schack and solder new ones on the circuite board. If they are not on a board and are connected with wires thats easier yet. Radio schack has a variety of L E Ds in a variety of colors and a couple sizes (5mm or 10mm). Some are in mounting rings that allowthem to snap into a mounting hole in a panel and these are usually set up already for a certain voltage like 12 volt. If you buy justthe L E D by itself, you will have tosolder a resistor to thepositive wire from the L ED because the L E D only usesbetween 3 and 4 volts, usually for 12 volt a 1000 ohm resistor is what is needed. L E Ds are positive/negative specific,and if you are adding a resistor, solder it to the positvewire from the L ED. If you reverse the polarityit doesn't damage the L E D, itjust won't light. I hope this helps Wayne kotila 96PT42 --- On Tue, 9/28/10, jr wrote: From: jr Subject: [WanderlodgeForum] Led Tank and clock displays To: WanderlodgeForum@yahoogroups.com Date: Tuesday, September 28, 2010, 4:54 PM I have a 1988 wbwl walk thriugh bath. in the overhead cabinet next to the refrigerator is a panel that contains controls for genny odor controls. both leds have gone bad. i am looking for replacements Any Ideas?

You can purchase numerical readouts from: http://www.digikey.com/

They sell almost any electronic component you could wish for. Radio shack doesn't havemany componentsany more.

i looked at digikey ,mouser,future electronics,and allied there was nothing
suitable
