Frustrating search for new turn signal bulb locally Posted by MI-Roger [Email] (#882) [Profile/Gallery] (more from MI-Roger) on Fri, 25 May 2018 18:17:52 In Reply to: Turn Signal Warning Message on a '06 9-3SC, MI-Roger [Profile/Gallery] , Fri, 18 May 2018 05:49:15 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
One department store had a digital bulb identifying tool in the Auto Dept which included the 2006 SAAB 9-3. The bulb number from this tool was not found on any of the display hooks.
I went across the street to an Advance Auto. They had a Sylvania hardcopy catalog hanging on a chain by the lamp display. This catalog had no entry for the 9-3 front turn signal bulb!
I went on-line after returning home and found a lamp number PY21W listed for this purpose. No one stocks it!
I kept searching and discovered the Sylvania 7507LL is identical to the PY21W lamp. O-Reilly's stocks this locally, other parts stores require shipping to home. Why was this lamp not in the Sylvania catalog?
So now I just need to find a #912 lamp for the kid's GrandAm lower back-up light - the car has upper and lower backup lights. Again, Auto Value stocks it in town but no one else does.
