assuming it is the bulbs its not difficult, there are about 5 IIRC

and (But don't hold me to this) part number is 30618290

Rufe should be able to help (SC802 and 805 have same bulbs, little twist base and a blue rubber cover over bulb)

I had a play a few years back, and its worth moving bulbs around, as a blown bulb in one position can stop others working, so it may only be one bulb blown, but can take some playing to find which one

i have just taken my stereo to bits , i plugged the front back in with the black facia off and all the bulbs work ok .
it looks like the lcd display is housed in a metal cowl which apears to be solderedonto the main pcb .
not sure if i unsoldered this there would be any bulb behind i could replace ?
thanks for all help cheers wellsy..
