Scampi, chips and peas did the job.
I've replaced two wires and fitted a temporary length of three-core mains lead. The unit was then connected through a lamp limiter. Photos are with the limiter switched in, I've not switched it out of circuit yet. No nasty noises or smells.
The range lighting seems to work which is good news as the five bulbs look painful to replace. I should add for clarity, that the bulbs shine through holes in the main front plate from the rear. Behind the dial plate are five circular, differently coloured pieces of acetate. The light shines through these and then through rectangular slots in the brass dial plate.
