Default AC background lighting out
I did the dim AC display fix while my car was off the road, easy fix; done. Now somehow my background lighting is completely out, worked fine previously. Safe to assume one of the pins on the cable supplies lighting, anyone know for sure which one?


Edit; this is just after I shut the car off at work this morning, thus the temp missing.

Here is a diagram of the plug on the HVAC controller:




looks like C16 pin is from the instrument panel supply voltage.

Hope this helps.

Should, thanks! Will yank it apart soon. Don't drive much in dark, even the mornings won't really need lights soon. But gotta get it fixed...
