Light in fan control knob
« on: January 02, 2008, 22:41:29 »
Was wondering how bright the tiny indicator light is supposed to be inside the fan control knob.
Mine is barely noticable, and I'm sure it is the correct bulb.
I've had it apart and cleaned the end of the clear/green fibre optic
device, no difference.
Any advice?

Get your magnifying glass out - you'll need it. It's not bright at all.

I can see it at night, maybe not so well if the moon is out.
