A/C Trim light or fuse???? so confused

[sammgo]

Hey everyone

So my cigarette lighter stopped working, easy enough, fuse (Although I haven't changed it yet)

But....the "trim" around the temperature knob is no longer backlight. Is this a light or a fuse, I couldn't find anything in the manual.

everything else on the console is lit up.

1st the light went out, then a few days later the lighter stopped working.

Thanks

I'm guessing there under the same fuse. Replace the fuse and see if it does the trick.

I am pretty sure it is not a fuse. those are normal bulbs.. really small ones.

If they go, they are such a PIA to replace.

I figured, I was looking at it more today and the middle control is dimmed on the right side. PMO - bumper to bumper warranty expired before this happened, just powertrain left. I will be putting in a deck at some point so I'll wait to do the light then. Unless I can fight with the dealer to do it for me, but I doubt it. I still have to check the fuse, but somehow I don't think they are connected since the manual shows the lighter under 1 fuse, and I've heard of other people losing the lights + the radio I think which was the fuse. *sigh* what can you do
