[MBZ] 123 dash lights?

[R A Bennell]

Or wiggle and shake the knob if it is anything like my 76 300D. The dash lights only work in one spot and I
sometimes have to jiggle the knob around until I find the right spot. The rheostat feels really rough and I think
it is something I will ultimately have to change out. I am really thinking of going the more updated route with
leds and some sort of electronic controller. I guess I'm not a purist after all.

The brightness knob dying?  Try jumping a wire across the rheostat and see
if they come on...
