Rev counter backlight
Discussion
There's two lights looking at the wiring diagram. Trace it back to the plug? Any other lights out as they'll share a common circuit

From looking at the wiring diagram there are two light bulbs for the Tachometer, and there is also the change up light
Easiest way to test is get a 12V battery (or a 9V square battery will do) and run the positive and negative to either side of the bulb (Red / White wire for the lights)
9V will be a bit dimmer (obviously!), but should light - here's me testing a dashboard light with a jump starter the other day...

Mine lit up. bulbs are swapped for red led's but that pic makes it look like theres two lights at the side
Nice!Not to railroad the thread but can you remember what LED bulbs you used to replace the OEM ones?
It looks like the main lights are 2.2W 12W W5W T10 size, and the smaller ones are W2.3W T5 size (at a guess)?
Picture of the speedo on my desk for those in the know (because everyone needs a TVR speedo on their desk at work...)
Discovered yesterday that the later cars have only 1 bulb in the speedo and rev counter. Gonna try out some led ones today. I've found the socket for the bulb in the rev gauge has no power. Think I'm going to need to get the gauge looked at. The single leds I have are not bright enough so I need to source some others.
