Hi All, I thought the bulb had blown on my rev counter but it seems to be there's no voltage at the contacts of the bulb socket under the rubber grommet. Anyone had similar issue?

Ok, thanks Byker, I'll have a look take a few pics. I read somewhere there may be a change up light built into the rev counter on the Cerb. Could the second bulb be this?

Seems really odd but there's only one rubber grommet on the rev counter which gives access to a bulb. I'll get the dash all apart again and take some pics.

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.
