Button Back Lights not illuminating
Some of the interior dash buttons and lights for them, do not illuminate, namely the HUD controls, DIC controls, NAV system function buttons, and Climate Control function buttons. Adjusting the Guage cluster dimmer has no effect on the back-lights for these buttons. Anybody seen this problem before.
No, I've never seen any.

All of the HUD, DIC, NAV and AC buttons illuminate when the twilight sentinel turns on the headlights at night. During the daytime when the DRLs are running but the Xenon low beams are off these buttons are NOT illuminated.
Turn on the headlights (look for the green headlight indicator on the lower left of the cluster) and all of the aforementioned buttons should light up.
The confusion comes because the cluster (speed, tach, etc) are lit up day and night.
