    dash lights & tail lights

    my dash lights stopped working however when i turn the fog lights on they work. What gives? also what is the correct replacement rear turn signal bulb? any hints on removing the bulb from the holder-it broke off from metal base and appears to have melted in to holder.

    Dash pod switch is dirty. Many other postings on how to clean. Use search function.

    Ecniv,<BR>I don't know what year your Reatta is ,but I have a 90 and the rear turn signal bulb is a 2057.As far as the broken -fried bulb,you should probably pull the fuse or disconnect the battery and then get some needle nose pliers and grab hold of the metal base of the bulb and twist in the direction of removing (counter clockwise) and it will come out.The metal base of the bulb is soft metal so it will literally twist and pull out.Let's hope that the socket is salvagable at that point,installing the new bulb will tell you that.My 2 cents worth,hope it helps!<BR>ronvb
