I pulled my car into the garage tonight and noticed the cruise buttons on the left didn't light up. Everything still works just no illumination.
Anyone have any ideas?
Replace the buttons or replace the led's?
 
I replaced my buttons with NOS ones from Ebay, though I don't now if they are still available or not. I've heard of people replacing the LED's but it requires some soldering.
 
I replaced mine with NOS also. They were cheap. Wish I would have taken them apart. I dont think they had LEDs though, LEDs dont dim to the same degree as the rest of the dash lights usually. They are probably very small wire lead lamps.
 
they are not led they are tiny regular incandescent bulbs. you can replace just the little pc boards under the cruise covers, the covers pop off, the pc board unsnaps and you unplug the tiny harness on it, i have a box full of cruise control switches and parts i can check for a good on/off pc board with a working bulb and sell it cheap to you if interested.

Yeah! Let me know Jamie.
Tonight was the first time I drove in the dark in quite some time.. now its bugging the chit out of me. For some reason when I know something isn't right I just have to fix it, may be a little OCD...idk.
