hey guys the controls on the passenger side of my steering wheel(radio,climate) don't light up at night..is that normal?..it's been like that since i bought it new...
thanks,

Both sides should light up. The only way to repair this is to replace the controls.
The instrument cluster and panel lighting system provides dimmable backlighting to the following components:
audio unit
climate control assembly
auxiliary climate control (front and rear)
instrument cluster
steering wheel switches
headlamp switch
reversing parking aid switch
adjustable pedal switch
electronic shift-on-the-fly (ESOF) mode select switch (MSS)
heated back window switch
message center

You need to remove the air bag and steering wheel on some vehicles to replace the switches.

If you have to mess with the airbag, make sure your life insurance is paid up...or take it to someone that knows exactly the correct way to deal with it. I would venture to say that without factory training that you would be wise to leave it alone. JMHO.
