    Fixing dead dash / interior illumination.

    Since these cars are 20 or so years old its common for bulbs to be dead, Lately I have been trying to fix all the illumination and have had great success.

    I have changed the Headlight switch illumination ( 2721 wedge bulb if anyone's wondering ) as well as both ash tray bulbs which are the same part #.

    Two switches though I am not sure one are below :

    Fog Light Switch ( I assume this one doesnt since above it lights up but not sure )




    Air / Recuirc Switch ( these light up when turned on but when off do not light up )



    Are these switches suppose to illuminate at all??? The fog light one never illuminates and the A/C - Recuirc only does when activated but thats it even when the exterior lights are turned on..

    Any input would be apreciated ( searched and searched did not find answers )

    Fairly sure the center lights up through 2 or 3 bulbs behind that come through on piece of clear plastic. Bently shows them.

        That is correct. They do not illuminate at night.
