Hi All -

The climate control buttons in my 2001 Infiniti I30 have lost their backlighting. Can someone please give me a step by step on how to remove this particular component of the dash, how to get at the light bulbs, and the product/SKU number of the replacement bulb (hopefully and LED so I'll not have to replace them again)?

Patrick

Welcome to NICO.

You can find directions on removing in starting on page BT-29. http://www.nicoclub.com/FSM/i30/2001/bt.pdf

Once the control unit is out, you'll need to open it up (a couple screws in back, I believe). Once you get into it, just match up the bulbs/LEDs that need to be replaced. Sorry I don't have any part numbers for you.

Thanks, Scott, I appreciate your help.

Does anyone know if there are any LED equivalent bulbs available and what the part numbers would be and vendor that I should order from? The LEDs last so much longer, it would be worth it for me.
