So I talked to the parts guy at my local dealer about a replacement bulb for the overhead console (not the map lights) and he tells me to bring the old one in and he is sure he's got them. I get down there and he takes it in back to look for one...comes back 5minutes later says it wasn't the one he thought it was. Tells me he has to contact chrysler to get the right part. Next day he calls me back and says that chrysler tells him that they don't make this bulb anymore and I have to buy a whole new console. Screw that! I ain't buying a whole new console just to get two words to light up.

So looking at the pic below can anybody tell me the part number to this bulb? I found a thread about a 06 or 05 ram overhead console that had these bulbs replaced with leds from superbright...Neo4 I believe...will this be the same for mine?

 

The bulb doesn't pull out of the base???

 

I don't know what the part number is but maybe you can replace it with a led.

Thought they were 194's? x2 on not pulling out of the base??

I just checked on sylvanias website about 194s and this can't be it since dimensionwise 194s are 1" long...this thing is tiny, smaller than the ones lighting up the ac controls...same kind of base though but smaller. I will check to see if it is removable from the base when i get home but it doesn't appear so.

 

It's gotta pull out of the base. I have a hard time comperhending that it wouldn't. When you get the bulb out, there should be a model number printed on the base. The 578's and 37 bulbs are tiny.???

 

Thats what I thought about my side marker in the headlamp assembly, I think it does come apart, and it did.

 

I'll make sure to have a magnifying glass handy.

 

Sounds good.

 

NEOx-W 4mm NEO4-x

Thats the led size that you will need. That bulb looks exactly like the ones I replaced in my truck.
