Steering Wheel Radio control back lighting


Recommended Posts

I noticed that the back lighting for my steering wheel radio controls just went out behind the volume control. This is the only switch that is not lighted. Anyone know how to replace the bulb and what bulb should I buy (special GM part, standard bulb, etc?)

i just replaced the switch when my backlight went out. I believe it was only $15 or so. Replacement was fairly simple for me because i had added the switches originally using jpcustoms kit. To chang out the switch, disconnect the battery, remove airbag fuse, and remove the airbag clip (yellow wire under left side of dash). Then you pop the airbag out using a flathead screwdriver--there is one clip on each side of the airbag accessible from behind the steering wheel. Then disconnect the airbag from the clock spring and you will have access to the steering wheel buttons. There is a wiring harness behind each button that you can disconnect that will enable you to simply swap it out. Sorry i do not have a part number for the switch but you should be able to find this. Hope this helps.
