I ended up having to open mine to add a ground wire.  That bulb is under the top half of the case.   It's been a while since I've been inside but I believe the cover over the bulb just lifts up (I recall having to carefully keep everything in place when adding that ground as stuff could get loose.  I can't remember if it's part of the arm too).  Since they can burn out, they have to be accessible.

Right out of the manual:
"Replace pilot bulb with #51 for 6 volt, #53 for 12 volt, or #356 for 24 volt service."

Below is an image inside mine (where I was adding a yellow ground).  The blue wire is the pilot light.

Hi guys,

Recently the pilot light on my 3b's Signal Stat 900 died

Has anyone repaired one of those before and is it easy?

If it's a burnt bulb, can they be found these days?

I quite like these units and if the revs are up I can't here the ticking so the flashing light comes in handy

Any opinions welcome
