SERVICE INFORMATION
Got a vehicle with a dashboard switch that doesn't light? The problem could just be a burned out bulb. If the bulb is the culprit, refer to the appropriate S/M or to the parts catalog, and see if a replacement bulb is available. Many of the dashboard switches are designed with replaceable bulbs. There's no need to replace the entire switch if a simple bulb replacement will fix the problem.
