Hi Leslie and Max,

Thank goodness I'm not the only one struggling with this problem.  I called a B&O repair center and they didn't have the part nor could they provide a part number.  To verify that the bulb is out, I followed this youtube video minus the laser removal.  

The part number is available in all the service manuals!!

I found it!!!

I called a B&O repair shop near Atlanta GA and the great guys there hooked me up!  For a light bulb it's a bit pricy but there aren't many choices $12.33 + $2 shipping.  This is the light bulb + circuit board so I must unsolder and resolder 2 wires but it seems quite easy.

Part #: 8230100
Modular Electronics

P{ease report back with the result, do you change only one or all 4

Good  Luck finding out, I never did. In the end I bought the spare part from B&O. They are sold mounted on the little pcb and are a HORRENDOUS !!price

I just got off the phone with Benny Amina @ Modular Electronics.   He said a 12V / 70mA bulb would do the trick, which I found

That looks like a LED lamp. I think you need a filament lamp.

That's correct and quite easy to replace.

?  I see no indication that it's LED.

Leslie, are you saying this bulb is ok?

It's not a led, just an ordinary light bulb. Shall I send you two for free?
