Default DIC issue

I just replaced my HVAC actuators and changed to LED bulbs in the DIC. Now they don’t light up at all. My turn signals and new hazard switch work. Headlights come on. But the DIC is not lighting.
I checked the dash cluster harness and the DIC harness. Can anybody help? I’m hoping to put the dash back on today.

Default Got it!

OK, as I was looking for other fixes for DIC not lighting, I checked the polarity. Even though it was marked from the vendor and I followed a diagram online....the polarity was wrong. I turned the bulbs the opposite way and they all lit.
