MFA unit plug I think....

If your heater panel don't light up it will be the bulb!!

you should have 2 connectors going to the heater control - one round black and one small rectangular grey, test the rectangular grey for voltage when lights are on, if voltage is there bulb is gone and as far as i know you cant replace them seperately.
