Dashboard Clock goes off?

Ok Scott,here on this pic you can see these three transistors or whatever they are,seems to be burned.You can tell by their middle pins.I have isnpected them with ohmmeter,and the current flows on both sides instead of one.They are type MK 58.So when I turned the cluster on the other side,you can see clearly brown spots on this green pattern.Can you confirm that this could be the problem.You can see them right in the bottom middle section.

That could be the problem or at least part of it. On mine all six of the transistors in that area check out correctly with the ohmmeter. I believe the 58 is a date code, since mine are all MK 61 on one cluster and MK 68 on another.

Where can i buy these.Is there anything on ebay,or some another web page.
And i need some characteristics for this type.

I am not sure. The MK alone is not enough information.

Hey Scott,can you please help me with this transistor.I could not find nothing with this code MK 58.It has to be another name for it.

The number is just the date code. Unfortunately the MK portion has not been enough for me to figure out exactly what it is either. The only thing I can think of at this point would be for me to remove them off of one of mine.

I would be very grateful if you can do this for me,that's if you don't need them anymore.I need three pieces.
