Hi,

The light on the slave arm went out. I am referring to the one that shines from the arm above the record to the record.

I believe that the light is a 6v 25a micro bulb (#8230055, pg9-11 in the B&O manual). I have not been able to locate a seller of this micro-bulb. I did find a mini-bulb and I put it in. The mini-bulb, however, is too big and it is not centered correctly. So, the light shines at an angle. The arm sensor does not notice the reflection from the record. The mini-bulb is a tight fit as it is and there is no way to move the mini-bulb to get its light centered. So, I think I need the mico-bulb (6v 25a micro-bulb). If you know of a seller for this micro-bulb will you please let me know?

There may be an alternative working solution. I did find a  6W MICRO LAMP 70MA . This bulb pulls a bit more power. Would this bulb work? Would the extra draw put extra wear on other components in the TT? Or, is there some other solution that I have not considered?

I would really appreciate any advice you might have. 

Thanks for taking the time to read my post.

I would hope Martin (Dillen on site) can give you an answer for this. He may even have the right bulb! Drop him a PM!

Thanks Peter. I will do that.

 

Thanks again,

Hi Peter,

Thanks for directing me to contact Martin. He did have the bulbs. He sent a couple to me and now the light works.
 

Thanks again,
