Default HVAC "FRONT" button unlit

I just finished the repair of the temp display on my dual-zone HVAC control unit. Thanks to the forum it was successful. Now I noticed that the button that says "Front" isn't illuminating. Is this related to the display repair or is it a separate LED that needs to be replaced? Is it easy to replace the LED's? What do I need if I have to replace it and where do I get it?

They are incandescent bulbs that provide all the backlighting, there 14 of them and should be replaced all at once, as shortly after a one for one R&R the others will start blowing.

An excellent match and the ones I use are 60mA mini bulbs P/N 1505K414 from McMaster Carr;

If you're uncomfortable doing the work JW Motoring offers a repair service that swaps em all out.
