I loved this feature on my GXL, just lift the handle and the keyslot lit up, No fumbling around in the dark trying to insert the key! Worked for years, now the bulb is burnt out. Anyone know what bulb it uses?
My real problem is that the translucent plastic flap that covers the slot is shot and my lock gets frozen just thinking about it. Where can I source a lock cylinder, are they the same part # on both doors?
It's the details that make a RX-7 special.

OEM parts list different numbers for each side, however, there was a thread that mentions they can be
reversed and used on each side. Although it is said that the tumblers can be easily arranged to use the
OEM key, it was beyond me, so I had a locksmith do the job, $20, if I remember correctly.

I used a generic LED pulled from a side marker light. I had purchased an expensive glass bulb ($18) before breaking it on install...

I had a turn signal blinking fast that I couldn't fix no matter what. The stock flasher didn't like something along the way. Replaced the flasher and no difference. I then removed R1 from the board (the known "fix" some people who convert to LEDs do) and the hyper blink went away.
For the CPU, take it out and look at all of the capacitors. Capacitors are cheap as heck at Mouser or Digi-Key. Carefully determine the correct specs of each one and once replaced, odds are you will have a working CPU again.
