Hello - new to the forum.
The lights on my steering wheel controls and climate controls are going out one by one it seems. Checked fuses, don't think it is a fuse.
Any suggestions??
Yes the steering wheel buttons were definitely a challenge! Once I removed the air bag, I was still unable to get the modules plugged back in, so ended up putting them back together piece by piece while installing back into the wheel.I purchased new buttons. Easiest fix.
I went with Dorman ones. The wire in the steering wheel is very short, makes it a bit challenging. Had to remove the air bag.
part numbers 901-120, 901-121,901-122,901-123 IIRC
That is a good solution. I had to use a hooked pick to hold the male end of the clip and pressure it into the back of the buttons while pushing the buttons into place.
I tried all kinds of things, but ended up reassembling in the wheel. No matter what, expect that part to be a PITA!That is a good solution. I had to use a hooked pick to hold the male end of the clip and pressure it into the back of the buttons while pushing the buttons into place.
Replace with LEDs. Then you can choose the color you want as well (even if it’s white.. [emoji6]) and they should last a long time. When I updated my head unit, I found I had 3 bulbs out on just the climate control module. That led to a full led interior replacement. (I also had recently upgraded the cluster to include a trans temp gauge, with blue LEDs, so it only made sense) I didn’t replace the interior lighting with blue however, since I still want while light if I need interior light. Just the gauges, and all panel lighting. It does require soldering skills, but really very easy work.
