Anyone else have this problem? When I bought the car it worked for like a week, then went off. I thought nothing of it... even know, dont really bother... but I'm bored and would like to fix something I have full control, just the buttons dont light up. The 3 position lights for the vent type work and IIRC the light for the a/c lights up, but not the rest. Oh now that I type about it, the illumination for the buttons them selves (the part that shows the functions) are what dont work. please advise thanks

i dont know but when it went out on me two buttons are out so i guess the bulbs light more than one switch

just to clarify in my case (if its same with yours) just the back lighting behind buttons is gone, main display is fine. same as yours Red?

Anyone have any ideas? IS it possible for all the bulbs to go out at once? (doubt it) as stated in my previous post, the indicator lights of when the button is pressed are working fine (the little rectangle light above each button), its the illuminating light that shows what the button is for that are not working

Well one of the reasons I posted this was because I wanted to change the colors, but didnt want to go through all the trouble if something else was wrong. so dont really need the bulb type, actually now that I think of it, I found this link for them from another thread:
