A-C panel lights

[Gypsy]

Hey!
Anyone know where to get the polarity lights for this a-c panel? the number on the panel is 55-591 and is on a 1986 Trojan 10 Meter sedan/flybridge.

its probably something like a 110v neon indicator lamp. been to radio shack or electronic supply house? this should be easy to exchange.
just a start. something similiar

I agree with g36. Unless you're looking for an exact looking match on the outside, any 110 volt neon indicator lamp will do (assuming of course 110 volt system)

If anyone comes up with a definate part number and a modification/fix I hope they would share it here on the FOrum.

I would like to get mine working again and I don't mind modifying the panel to achieve that goal.

For the meantime, I simply have a simple polarity tester plugged into one of the AC outlets. Achieves the same goal, but not as cool as the panel system.

Thanks guys!
I will try "the shack"! I have one of the plug in do-hickies as well...just something else to keep up with. This boat has been sitting tied to a dock for four years and is in need of LOVE. The sliding door is gonna need repairs. The PO had the rollers but I have yet to figure out how to remove the door. His attempts yielded the adjustment screws being stripped out. The 8.2L Detroits seem to be OK, less than 980 hours and oil samples came back OK, no contaminants. Starboard tachs don't work at either station, a recent development, so I don't have to worry about hangin out in a bar for a while! Thanks again for the response!!!

sliding door wheels/etc are avaialble from Marine TEch/Beacon Marine.

I suggest you order spares as well.

On the express cruiser (not midcabin) you can remove the tracks and if the top of the inside track is worn, simply flip it over and you will have a new surface to use.

Let us know on the polarity refit.
