    Kenwwod faceplate lights don't work.
    I have a Kenwwod KDC-215-S cd player that's always worked very well... Now I turn it on and the faceplate lights don't come on... the player works fine but no lights... I heard the bulbs in the faceplate might be bad so I took the faceplate apart and there are two bulbs facing each other attached to a cicuit board... could one of these be bad?. and how the he// am I going to replace when they are attached to a circuit board?. what a pain... I have never seen anything like this before, any help is appreciated...

    Can you tell the voltage of the bulbs, Led?
    You could slowly apply voltage at board conncections and see if they light.
    Are they SMD's?(mounted ON board, no pins through board).

    It looks like one bulb is through the board and has "130" on the bottom side... the other does not look like it goes all the way through like the first one...

    Can you power up and measure voltage across the bulb?
