2003 Suburban HVAC Button Lights

[rjdjbd]

Hello / I have a question regarding the HVAC buttons on my 2003 Suburban that light up at night. I discovered the other night that the far-left button (Off) no longer lights up at night. What does it take to gain access to the actual bulb. I'm wondering if it's pretty straight-forward and easy to access and replace the bulb or not worth the effort.

Thank you

I am interested in this too. I have a single light out on my display as well but I just had not asked about that yet.

I'm sure @05Single or @Thatsquishykid717 might be able to answer, as they're lighting gurus.

Have to tear apart and resolder new lights on the mother board. Not easy but doable if you have the skill .

@05Single said it exactly right. If you can solder small areas it’s not super hard. Watch a how to on YouTube. Very easy to take them apart though and bench test them

Thread resurrection. Same AUTO HVAC head and my snowflake bulb is out; I'd like to tear into this to replace it using an incandescent bulb. Anyone (@Sam Harris @05Single?) know what size and voltage (12v?) bulbs they take? Link?

Here is a Youtube video I found that should help. I'm also linking to the bulbs you need to buy if you want non-LED replacements.

Chevy Climate Control Light Bulbs. These are brand new replacement light bulbs for the automatic climate controls.

Funny, I just looked at that video. I did buy bulbs from them for my 4x4 and (I think) headlight switch a few years back. Thanks!

EDIT: not the headlight switch but the fog light and wiper switch.

I have done this too. Not too bad a job.
