gear/shift indicator light

[TonyLS]

The gear/shift indicator light is out for all gears. Can this bulb(s) easily be replaced? Is it just one builb or many?

Thanks

What year is your LS, and does it have the Select Shift Transmission? I don't think V-6 or V-8 matters, but it is still a good idea to include that info as well.

It's an 04V6, doesn't have a select shift

Try to access the bulb by removing the trim panel over the gear shift lever. Per the service manual for the 2004, this involves:

1. Pull upward from the front of the trim panel to release the retainers.
2. Disconnect the electrical connectors.

If you cannot reach the bulb holders from there, then you will need to remove the center console assembly. For those instructions, send me a private message with an e-mail address for you that can accept attachments.
