maybe you blew a fuse. Check the bottom left fuse box inside your car right below the steering wheel column

i just took mine apart a few weeks ago it has a blub, you may whant to check
with the dealer to see if thay have one before you take it apart, none of them near my house had it and autoparts stores dont carry them it took almost a week to get it from dealer, cost about 4.00 its a bit of a pain in the a$$ to take apart so you may whant to get blub before you take it apart. i had to leave the unit out of the car rather than puting it back together and having to take it out again when the blub came in

this is for manual, the part # for the top buttons and the temp Blue/red is
27545-40u00 i did not need the one for the fan switch, so i dont know what the part # is. its different because it a little bit longer, but just to see if one of the others worked in its place i switched them and it works fine. i could not tell the differnce (i did this when it was dark)

maybe a wire is loose somewhere in there. i didnt even know my lights were out and i took my headunit out to sell it, anyways i touched a wire or something on accident trying to even out the front dash parts around the ac part anyways, and all the lights flashed on, i thought what tha ?

anyways reached up in there a few more times to see if i could find out which wire but nothing happened and havent thought about it since until i came by this post.
