   I'm not too familiar with these units, but on some valve equipment that
has an indicator light that runs from the LT supply, a common mod to dim
the bulb is to connect resistors in series with the bulb. These resistors
invariably cannot take the pace, so check to see if they are there, if
there is indeed a bulb! :)
