Individual buttons seems fine but the whole area is dark. Looks like something went out. I’ve checked the fuse and they’re okay. | ||

I saw the bulb in the center of the fan bit that was for lighting up just the switch. I can't seem to identifiy where the ones up the HVAC sliders are. Since the whole console suddenly went 'dark' I suspect there must be a single bulb responsible. | ||

Here is a photo showing what the back looks like. I think there are 3 or 4 regular dash bulbs fitted. (IMG_0262.JPG) Attachments ---------------- IMG_0262.JPG (126KB - 0 downloads) | ||

But my G500 the sliders and at least one of the knobs have no light, I think it is only the AC vent flap switch in that section that is lit up. | ||

On my other 463, it is not lit as well. Edited by otiswesty 11/13/2020 2:07 AM (Night.jpg) Attachments ---------------- Night.jpg (36KB - 0 downloads) | ||
