I was driving home last night and the right side of my HVAC control knobs were dark; the fan speeds were illuminated while the temperature knob was largely not, and the AC/fan knob was completely dark.
From what I can glean from YouTube, there are two tiny bulbs located directly behind the climate controls, so I'm guessing the right side bulb failed.
What I can't get a straight answer for from YouTube is the bulb size/type for my year, and a forum search didn't yield anything either... I drive a 2010. I'd like to have the correct bulbs on hand before I go pulling the whole radio bezel off. If possible I'd like to just go ahead and replace these bulbs with LEDs and be done with it.
It doesn't *look* like there's much variance in the climate controls or indeed much of the whole dash/cluster/stereo bezel for a lot of these trucks, but if I don't ask and just act on the first bulb number I see, it'll be the wrong one... As that was what happened when I replaced the cabin dome light. Thanks for reading!
