Small Engines (Lawn Mowers, etc.): Replacing Ariens Snowblower Lights, auto part stores, continuity tester


Question
On 2 different snowblowers, both lights are blown.  Used a continuity tester (no continuity) & then saw the filament on one of them was broken.  These are self contained rubberized plastic housings and I can't figure out how, or even if the bulb can be replaced.  I did an Internet search for snowblower lights and found almost nothing.  Arnold makes an aftermarket light, but I didn't find much else.  I did find Ariens headlight Assemblies 24560, 24571, 24569, but there was no indication of which units go with what machine.  I have an Ariens ST1236, 924076.  I was hoping that a simple bulb or sealed beam replacement was possible.  Thanks so much! Paul

Answer
I really haven't worked on but 3 snowblowers in the past 10 years, but if this is the same bulb I'm familiar with, it should just pry out of the housing and the wires are held on by screws on the back of the bulb. This is an automotive bulb available in most auto part stores.
