Hi Ian,
Sorry I didn’t get back to you–got a gnarly case of the flu.

All better now.

Good for you for going ahead with finding the solution. And using the double sided tape trick to get hold of that little bitty bulb.

And lastly thanks for sharing the process on this forum–it’ll come in handy for another Piper owner.

Happy Flying 
Steve

Well this turned out to be a fairly simple process. The rocker part of the switch is just a cover, which with a bit of gentle effort pulls off, leaving the bulbs visible. The only tricky part is pulling out the tiny capless bulbs with out breaking them. They are too far recessed to get a hold of, so a small pair of pincer nosed plyers is the only solution. A little double sided tape wrapped around the end of the plyers helps to get a good hold without exerting too much pressure.

Hi Ian;
I have not done this, so am reaching out for an answer.
I’ll get back to you when I find it.

Can anyone help with the procedure for changing out bulbs in the rocker switches on a Seneca V?
Thanks in advance.
Ian.
