Does the switch for the automatic transmission selection light up? I know power is orange and comfort is green, but does the lettering "a/t" "power" and "comfort" light up?Thanks!

 

mine has no lights when in a/t, but i think that mione is knida screwy cuz it lights up just power when car is turned on, cant remember what that means. need to diagnose it.

 

IIRC I don't believe they do, just the orange and green indicators.

 

Thanks, but i don't know if what i said was clear or not.. for example, when i turn my headlights on and the dash lights light up green, Will the switch in the middle where it says "A/T" light up light green as well to match the rest of the dash? because mine does not. When i'm driving atnight, i can't see anything there unless i feel for the switch and turn it to power or comfort. Any comments are welcome! Thanks!

 

umm. no it dosent, or mines broken too.

 

the A/T logo should light up, you need to take apart the switch to replace the bulb

Craig, you neve cease to amaze me!

 

Hey, sorry to bother you. But i took the switch out and looked at it, and after i attempted to take it apart with no luck, i decided i might ask if there's a certain way to get to that bulb. It felt like when i was tugging on it after releasing the small clip that the whole thing was connected...(both the switch side and the lights side) I hope this isn't too confusing.

To be simple, can anyone tell me how to take the switch apart to get to that bulb? Thank you.

 

Hmm, will have to check.

Mine lights up "P" when I turn on the car, but it has been doing this for a loooong time.

Edit: It is doing the same thing, middle light is not on. Can you explain how to replace? I could not figure out how to undo clips holding it on.

 

it's a pain to get open
the back separates into two smaller parts (one for each harness)
Remove the smaller part first with the two bulbs that you can see. There is a clip at each end near the bulbs. The clips are easy to break but usually they'll still work even if you break them


Then you can remove the larger part. There are clips on each side (not top/bottom like the other part). Once this is open, there will be a little piece that falls out. When reassmebling, put the switch in comfort and put in this little piece and then you can pop in the other piece easily. Then put back the first piece you took out with the two bulbs.


I just happened to have an extra power/comfort switch on my desk so that's how I got the pictures

 

what happened to that thumb nail there Craig...dang VE intake manifold bolts

 

hey craig,

thanks a lot.got everything fixed up.

 

stupid intake manifold bolts!!! they're evil! Sucked for David too because then I dropped the wrench on his chest since he was under the car.

that was the first week of December and its still not gone. It's growing out with a new fingernail underneath it but it takes forever.


nice sig

 

Next time go for the eyes, Craig! Sorry, could not resist! LOL
Ever played Baldur's Gate? Remember 'Go for the eyes, Boo!'?

 

I forgot about the wrench falling on David lol.

yeah its a shame someone chopped that nice prelude out of the pic.

 

or convert it to LED

 

Is the switch for sale?
