I had the same problem and followed a post on u tube to solve problem. i bought a tiny bulb, about the size of a popcorn kernel. it has two wires. one takes apart the face of the proton radio, and fishes out the bulb which is in a green sleeve. the bulb i bought at ametron made in Taiwan and was either 12 or 14 v (sorry i don't know much about electronics and i kind of forgot the exact size, but it was not the specified type, but close.) the bulb has two tiny wires which i spliced in. the flurescent radio dial now works, and actually seem to glow brighter with each use...
