hello my first post here and i hope you guys can help me. I have a 1998 Civic Si coupe. When i turn on the
headlight the dash and the radio are all illuminated but not the heater/ac control. This is a pain the the ****
during night driving. Any ideas ? fuses looked good to me ... thanks

Welcome to HCF. I'm sure someone will come along and help you out.

 

thanks i feel better already i like what i'm seeing and i think i will hang around for a bit. cheers

 

Maybe the light in your heater/AC control switch is faulty?

 

well the switches themselves lit up when pressed but the area below it ( the one which represents what those switches are for) are not illuminated. Sorry if i did not make myself clear on the problem [&o]

 

Okay, then check the lights behind that area below the heater/ac control. Could it/they be burnt out? You may have to take some of your dash apart to check it.

 

how hard is it to rip off the dash ? I am afraid i may not be able to put them back properly

 

Ok I have the same exact problem. I notice when I turn my lights on I can see the images the buttons relate to, but as soon as I move the slide lever, the lights go out. I have banged on that area and the lights have came back on. I figured it was a wire or something.

 

Hey thanks for the tip, i banged the side and the lights came back on !!
