I got myself a used Kirby Sanitronic IV today and well... I'm in need of a bit of help.
I have yet to work on a Kirby this old so far and I have no idea how to replace the light bulb... I can't find any information on how to do this. I found a post on here earlier telling me what light bulb I need, but that doesn't help as I need to know where the light bulb is. | ||

The light bulb you need is part #1650 and is NLA from Kirby, although a generic equivalent of it may be found. It is not truly shaped like a bulb (as the later #109273, used on models Classic Omega-Legend II), but is oblong-shaped.
The bulb is exposed on all models 505-Classic 1CR and can be removed by just raising the headlight cap. To replace it, you simply unscrew it and remove it from its socket. Then put a new one in its place. ~Ben | ||

tase (Will) & Kirby headlight...
Hello Will.
If you haven't already acquired the bulb & headlight socket wire elsewhere, shoot me an email & I will provide you all of my contact info. If you have, keep me in mind next time as a source for your Genuine Kirby wants & needs. I'm sure I will be able to save you substantially. I carry only Genuine Kirby parts. Item(s): 108268 ~~ Headlight Socket ~~ $8.14 1650 ~~ Headlight Bulb ~~ $2.96 ea. or 2 for $5.62 Plus minimal postage. Cheers & hagn/d all, Bill Ps: Ben, whomever told you the light bulb is NLA, is incorrect. I order them regularly from Kirby, in fact I even called Kirby to confirm this just moments ago. I am finding that, Kirby IS 'pulling the plug' on more & more of the models' original parts, prior to the current production model. This is unlike what the case used to be. | ||
