lights for fan & heat knobs

[smc57]

I have '03 Camry. The illumination lighting for the background at the fan & heat selection knobs is not lighting. The blower selection is lit fine. Is there a fuse for this or do the lights need replacing? Can someone send instructions on how to do this? -Steve

Have you figured out how to fix this problem, I am having the same issue on my wife's 04 camry.

If you mean that you can't see what the temperature control is set to, or what the fan speed is, then I can help you. I have an '04 Camry and was able to change them myself. Get a flat screwdriver, and put some duct tape on the end as not to scratch your interior. Pry the climate control bezel out toward you. Unplug the connector. There are 2 bulbs I changed with blue bases that screw into the back of the bezel. I used 2 small flat screwdrivers to remove and reinstall the bulbs. I took one to the dealer and they ordered them for me, about $4 each.
Recently they went out again, and this time the dealer can't find the correct ones to order. I am trying to get to a salvage, but my schedule sucks.
