Then your thread name is a bit misleading as the bulb is not a part of the cap. It jis mounted on the dial assembly which is then attached to it, but the cap ends where there is no longer stator, rotor, trimmer or the shaft.
There is then nothing really wrong with the cap.
The bulb...???
People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
