Ariens Headlight Bulb
Original Message   Mar 9, 2014 3:53 pm
Hi Everyone, I have a 2004 vintage 11528LE (924xxx series) and have the headlight in the panel. I found the Ariens part #, 00432600, but was curious if anyone knew what kind of bulb it was. I wanted to see if there was a LED or brighter bulb available given all the new technology out there. Thanks Chris

I bought 10 bulbs for $1.63 on EBAy shipped from China.  They were listed under :

10 X Halogen Light Bulb 20W 20 Watt 12V G4 Base JC Type

I had to to a little modification to solder the bulb into the existing Ariens' base, because I didn't want to pay the going rate for the actual replacement - ~$9.00, as I recall.

So far, so good !

how did you solder the new bulb to the base of the ariens ? i would think that would be hard on the bulb filament.

Actually, it wound up being easier than I would have guessed.  Worked on 1st try.

I kept the old bulb base and soldered only the filament, but bad news, it' burns :) I guess I'm going to get the original at 9.95$
