I own the Yahamas RX V850 which works great except the lighted

anything
I know what the unit is worth and I know what a repair might cost
but I want it done
Can anyone suggest a repairperson
I prefer to send/take it somewhere as opposed to doing it myself
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
You need to purchase the 14v lamp from a Yamaha dealer. It plugs
in so it is easy to replace. Chuck
Uh the 850 has a flurescent display.
I looked it up, it's definitely a lamp, like the RX-V890 was. Most
Yamaha's are flourescent but not the 850. Looked through the manual
twice however, and could not find the lamp part number. The
schematic reference is PL 101.

Thanks Mark. I ran a Yamaha warranty station when this unit was new
and I was pretty sure it used a lamp. They were a high failure part
but I can't remember the part number. Chuck
Yamaha parts department can identify the lamp, 800-854-1965.
Alternatively, there's a fellow on eBay selling LED replacements for fuse
lamps etc. I've dealt with him and he's fine. He says he can provide
replacement LED's for the 14 volt Yamaha lamps, though I think you'd
probably have to solder the lamp to the existing wire / plug set and
insulate using shrink-wrap or electrical tape.
and reverse the domain name.
