The "ring" lights are about half out the cup holder lights! anyone have any idea how to fix this!?

 

I'm guessing you have a bulb out and must disassemble the console. I haven't looked to see how it comes apart.

 

Did you ever figure out the lighting in the cup holders?

 

Well, partially. I opened up the console today... here is what I discovered...
They aren't bulbs, they are "electroluminescent rings" which all local dealers say "they don't carry them."

I did some research on google and ran into a post on another forum, can anyone give me any suggestions? I'm going to call the Chrysler hotline tomorrow and see if they have the part. On the "electro ring" tape stuff it has the number "64947" but is not a part number I can find.

Please read the post at this forum: http://www.caliberforumz.com/archive...hp/t-1344.html

Which also gives you a link to here... http://world-electroluminescent.com/..._products.html

Anyone think I should try these or can anyone find the factory? I can't find 'em.

Thanks,
Evan















****WHERE IT IS CIRCLED IN RED IS WHERE THE LIGHTING DOESN'T WORK... SEEMS TO BE "BURNT OUT"*****

 

Interesting. I wonder what they would do in a warranty situation??

 

My local dealer says I have to buy a whole new cup holder... $150! no thanks!
Should I take my chances on buying some tape online?

 

If it isn't too pricey, I don't see why not.

 

I am also having this issue with one of the rings in my cup holder. any luck on finding new strips for it?

 

Got it fixed... here's what to do...

Power inverter (just in case the voltage is different from the stock one)
p/n: CL-ISC-12V-3-8FT

$4.50

2.3mm Wire - GN - Green
http://www.coolight.com/category-s/53.htm
It's $1.20 a foot, you only need 2 feet tops (3 if you want to be safe)

You will need to know how to use a soldering gun. They will ship you step by step directions. I'm not perfect at this stuff, but luckily I had help from my pops. It looks awesome now, back to normal.
