Should these 3 steering switches have lightbulbs?
2005 Civic Hybrid.
On a trip last night I noticed the steering wheel area was pretty dark, and it made me think I might have some bad bulbs.
I looked on several Honda parts websites but did not find any mention of bulbs, just the entire switches for each.
So, do these 3 areas have some sort of internal light bulb?
1. Cruise control buttons on the steering wheel (Switch Assembly, Auto Cruise Set );
2. Turn signal/light switch (SWITCH ASSY., LIGHTING & TURN SIGNAL ); and
3. Wiper switch (SWITCH ASSY., WIPER).
I haven't driven the car at night for some time, and it feels like the text on these items *should* be backlit like others on the dash. Sure would have helped to see exactly where the cruise buttons were at night.
