Paul,
I guess you are talking about the small round one by the red reverse polarity LED? Mine is burned out also, but I never got around to fixing it (been using the microwave clock to verify 110V present and if it is blinking I know the shore power went out while I was gone). If you still have the part number from radio shack for the replacement part handy, I'd like to have it?
From your pictures it looks like the "service on" indicator just under the panel access key is burning in the last picture, but not the first. Mine has never been on, but I haven't really looked at the wiring before I read this post. Is that for 110 also? 12V master? Perhaps I will fix them both before the weather breaks.
While I'm asking, what is hooked to the red accessory switch, and spill the details about the extra switch for head exhaust fan ?

I installed an electric head and attached it to this circut breaker with the red switch.

The PO had installed a 3" round electric exhaust fan opening in the head.
The fan motor is located in the port lazeret and he had the wires going directly to an Accessory circut breaker for on on-off switch.
People could not find the switch for the fan so I added a SWITCH to the panel.

"AC- on green light."
Here is a picture of the new light installed, it's hooked up to 120 volt.
I went to Radio Shack and looked at the lights that looked like the one I took out and made sure it was for 120volt service. I think it was $1.25.
I used needle nose plyers to yanked out the old one.
Used next bigger drill bit to clean up hole and installed new light....press fit no glue.
Don't forget to turn off 120 volt to boat before installing.
