my shiftlight was working fine, now it is not. it has been bent around alot due to taking the cluster apart many times. i have removed and tested the light and the led is not working.
I require a new led. but i cant find any info on what to get.
i dont need help with instalation, is been in and working for a couple years, then I busted it last week.

now the question i have is can you sell a single led, or can you tell me which 5mm led and resister to purchase?

i had my local autoparts store contact somebody at hondata and they said they would not sell them individualy.
If thats the case please help me find one, as i know very little about LEDs.

please help

The information on the type of LED is in the installation manual. Look on page 12. Somethign close to that should work as long as a resistor is used with it. If you are still usure what it is you need, then you will need to contact someone more knowledgeable with electronic parts to help you.
