Hello,

I have come to find my DH is just missing the bulb socket mounted flush to the board. You can see in the picture the lower right one is there but the upper left one, L6, is missing. I believe this is the correct part: Wedge Base Socket - Sub-Miniature 24-8830

They are out of stock at PBL and BAA. Anyone know who else may have them or maybe even someone who has a few I could buy from them? Thanks!

Odd that did not come up when I did a search on PBL's website, guess I will blame search engines LOL! Thanks Lloyd, need me some LED's too so I will have to make yet another order LOL!!!

Searches can be tricky. You often have to try different words. #555 socket, #555 light bulb socket, lamp socket ( bingo ) etc. etc.

Nope. Just get them all at the same shop. PBL rocks when it comes to orders and customer service. I had a ? on Wednesday, answer on Thursday order on Thursday afternoon, shipment at house Monday. If you don't see on website just drop a email or call.

I have several extra from repairing the chase light boards on my WH2O. If you want, I can drop one in the mail to you today.

You have the wrong P/N.

The one you suggest, 24-8830, is for #86 bulbs, ala CFTBL.

I would try to find the correct P/N.

Per the parts list for DH:

659 .2 A-19497-1 7 lamp pcb & spacer assy 1
660 ..3 A-19497 7 lamp pcb assy 1
661 ...4 A-19497-AI 7 lamp pcb assy 1
662 ....5 5768-14400-00 pcb-7 lamp 1
663 ....5 5070-09054-00 diode-1N4004 1.0a 7
664 ...4 24-8767 socket-pcb twist 5
665 ...4 24-8805 socket-pcb H wedge 2
666 ...4 24-8768 bulb #555 6.3Volts .25Amps 7
667 ...4 5791-10871-09 9h spl sq pin .156 1
668 ..3 03-8022-1 "spacer .541 L""" 4

You want 24-8805. The link LTG suggests is the right one.

Most pin retailers have them, including PBL Get a few, as these often fall off lamp boards, and they are handy to have around

I just got around to restoring my Dirty Harry this week and found the same issue.
...except L3 and L6 are missing completely. Like, never even there.

Was this a common issue with this board?

Thankfully, I found this post and was able to order the necessary parts but what a PITA!!
