1987-91 Bronco Radio Light Bulb # 74

• Stock Replacement
• #74
• Backlight For The Radio Display 

Is the display on your original radio a little hard to read?  This may be a more simple problem than you thought.  There is a tiny little bulb inside the radio that shines through the display from behind which burns out over time.  Replacement is simple too:

• The radio surround is held on by four spring clips.  Open your ash tray, and pull out on the bottom.  Work off each corner carefully.
• The radio is held in place by four 7mm self-tapping bolts/screws.  Remove them, and pull the radio toward you.  The dash plastic can get brittle over time so work carefully.
• Disconnect the two electrical connectors, and the antenna lead.  You now have the radio completely separated.
• The top of the radio has a lid which is clipped on.  Work a screwsdriver under the edges starting with the rear.  Completely remove the lid. 
• There is a connector with two wires on the back of the display.  Gently twist this and pull it out.  The bulb is now exposed.
• Gently pull the bulb out, push the new one in, and reverse the disassembly procedure.  If the bulb was the problem you will be rewarded with a display you can actually read.
