Centre Console Backlight

[Snowdog]

Hi all,

I have noticed that when i have the lights on at night the heating and fans controls for the car on the center console don't light up. Is there no backlight on my model, or has the fuse or bulbs gone?

I have an E36 318 1994. Cheers.

I've got the dimmer turned right up, i think it must be the bulb. I'll check the fuses first just to be sure though.

Does the dimmer darken it at all?

At this point I would say that the bulb is fouled internally/externally !!

Yeah the dimmer does darken and light up. So i'll have a look for a bulb to replace the one thats in there. Im going to see a breaking M3 tonight so i can see if the one in there works.

Cheers.
