How do I go about fixing my dashboard light in the middle?

So I turned my headlights on tonight and I notice my dashboard light on the left in the middle compartment is out. How do I go about fixing about it? Heres a picture:




thanks.

You will need a set of radio removal keys. The keys are identical on the radio and climate control. There are tons of them available on www.ebay.com

You will need to pop in the two keys. There will be a click on each side. Pull out the climate control. There are 2 harnesses. If you can not access the bulbs with the short harnesses plugged in, unplug them. I would have a set of all bulbs to replace. Sometimes they dim over time. I believe there are 2 of them.

I recommend http://www.autohausaz.com/ and ask for replacement bulbs for you car's climate control. They should know then number that it takes. They are inexpensive.

Hello,

By the vehicle schematics its showing that the correct bulb that goes there is part number 0025440294.

Here is the link to visually verify bulb type:
AutohausAZ - Bulbs

Disclaimer: Make sure to verify the appearance of the original bulb to ours, due to this bulb having various uses and could be different for different applications.

So is it 2 bulbs total or 4? I saw a YouTube video and the guy took only 2 bulbs out.

That particular bulb is used for multiple functions on that vehicle. So I would double check with the local dealer on how many you need to be on the safe side.
