Problem 1:
so in my 99 legacy, when i pull my sun visor down and lift the little plastic cover to expose the mirror, the lights come on that are on the side of the mirror.
problem: there are two hinges that hold that plastic piece over the mriror to swing freely. my right hinge broke out of nowhere and now I can obviously still swing the darn thing but the light does not come on now...
so is the light not coming on because coincidentally the light bulbs have burnt out, OR is it because the two hinges help trigger the bulb(obviously) to turn on and since the one is broken the trigger does not?
fix: so do i need to try and replace the bulbs(which i can't find part number to), or do i need to replace my entire sun visor
Problem 2:
my map light seems to be bi polar... it is an LED bulb and have had it for almost a year and NO PROBLEMS. All of a sudden now, sometimes when i push the button in, the light will not come on, then other times it will. at first i thought it was a bad bulb but all the individual led's light up brightly and fully when it DOES work. then I guessed maybe the prong connectors that hold the bulb in were too loose but they seem just fine.
does anyone have any idea what this could be?
