Replacing Old LEDs

[Bradley Slavik]

I believe that all these LEDs are on ISA or EISA cards, circa 1987.

Let me be more specific now that I have gone to radio shack.

In 5mm red LEDs they have

12volt, 2.6v, 1.8v

276-330 which is 1.8v does not seem to have web page available.

Should I just put in the 12v one? And turn around if I get it wrong? or
use jumpers to test it before soldering?
