Default Buttons on climate control dont light up...

After having a problem with my climate control display, i was tapping on the screen to make it work again and a few of my buttons stopped lighting up. Is there anyway to replace the bulbs/led or am I stuck with it?

Folow these instructions ststed above! I did it and it works great it is very easy and takes about 1hr from start to finish!

Here is a link on how to remove all the console!

I used these to fix mine. Please note that you need 70ma bulbs at 12 volts for the proper light levels. In the case of these bulbs, you will have to carefully removing the plastic coating around them, seperate the wires, then solder them onto the circuit board. It takes about an hour to replace all of them assuming you know how to use soldering equipment. These also work well in the radio for the same problem.
