Hi guys. So I was adding a sub to my 01 SE with Bose and the guy had to take out the radio in order to tap into the wires in the back. Thing is after the install my climate control bulbs burdned out! All but two the "mode" button and the air recycle one. Has anyone had this happen? Does any1 have any idea of what may have caused this? Thanks in advance.

 

Sounds like the guy crossed some wires while he was re-installing the head unit. Or he didn't hook the climate control wires up tight/completely/correctly. I'm not sure, but that would be my guess.

 

most of mine went out on my 00. it happens

 

Try smacking the side of the center counsil near the HU. If they come back on, you had a loose connection. Mine did it too. They are LED's and should not burn out for at least the life of the car.

 

I dunno if yours uses LEDs, but over time, mine went out too (non-Bose 2001 Max). $3.50 ea. from Nissan.

 

is there a write-up on how to replace? also, what bulb does it use? 194? one of mine is burned out as well.

 

Mine were not leds, they were bulbs with a blue sheath over them. They are extremley goofy ones and just bought them from the dealership. They were fairly cheap, I think I paid $7 for 3. I bought one extra and got lucky because when I changed the 2 burnt out ones I made a third go with all the bumping.

thanks guys. I am talking with the installer right now to rectify the problem.

 

yeah thye do burn out... mine did for no reason and they are rare bulbs to find and a pain in the a$$ to repalce.... try what someone else said about smacking the side because i would not want to replace my bulbs ever again
