My Palstar tuner had a broken lightbulb for quite a while. I was a little irritated that it wouldn't turn on so I decided to change the original light for a green LED I had in my junkbox. Since I had to open the tuner also cleaned the interior and the coil/coil wheel/wheel shaft. All parts were certainly very dirty and I had to clean everything multiple times.

The interior after cleaning. |
The wheel that makes contact with the coil was almost black inside. Don\t know what causes this?

LED install with a 2K VR. |

Original lightbulb old skool. I had to magnify to see the break. |
 |
At first the LED was too bright. I was glad I installed a VR to dim the light.

Does anyone have a good idea to refurbish to lettering around the antennaswitch? It comes off unfortunately. It already did after a year or so. If I knew this would happen I had certainly made precautions and would protect it.
