« on: 25 January 2016, 06:43:34 pm »
Hi

It's a bit hard to tell, but it doesn't even look soldered. Soldering all those components to the copper tracks will surely help.

Should be easy enough to solder in replacement bulbs. I assume remaining four are working ok?

That's the thing the whole circuit doesn't work anymore, I was trying to find replacement bulbs on the internet but no luck.

You could find the fault by going round the bulb pins with a small battery, like a AA one or similar.  The circuit should provide power to all bulbs at once so moving where you put the pos/neg power should show where a break is.  Try cpc Farnell for bulbs

search 12v capless bulbs on ebay, look on the bulb to see watts, if non of the other bulbs are working they have either blown or theres a break in the pcb circuit, you could mend it with solder when you solder the new bulbs in.

or replace the bulbs with 12v leds - loads on the bay in all colours.
