The El cheapo tech2 only works from -97 and on, so it probably won't work on your car. Just take out the instrument panel and replace the bulb. Replace all others bulbs there while you have it off.

lets go back a few posts to the suggestion of code 19 stored on ecu. how does this affect the petrol pump as i cant here it when i turn on the ignition, there was once a small whirring till the pressure built up. how do i rectify code 19. trouble is i dont want to make the vauxhall garage any richer

1) Sort the bulb....
2) Do the paper clip test to see what codes are stored.

For info, code 19 relates to crank sensor, if no crank signal is seen then you get no spark or injection operation.

And the cheap tech 2 will wpork on all the Omega cable throttle V6 power plants from 1994 onwards.
