This may be a dumb question...but does your headlight switch light when the lights are on? In other words, is it illuminated like the controls for the heating/AC? Just the little part in the middle that functions as the pointer for the switch....mine has never lit and I think that it should....thanks.

 

Yea... it should be lit. If it's the only thing not working, then its definately not a fuse.

If the bulb is burnt out, then you're lookin at a whole new switch assembly, unless you can somehow crack it open and put it back together.

 

Good, I am hopeful that this will be a quick warranty item....wish me luck.

Thanks, for the quick reply!

The switch does NOT light. The little characters around it does but not the switch.

Ok, so now I am really confused , here is a diagram of the switch:

Not sure if it will be readable....but I do see a bulb in the diagram, so it is only for the areas around the switch, not the pointer itself?

I had 2 switches in my hand (one from the truck and one I bought from the dealer to modify).Neither had a light for the ****.The **** is just clicked on to the switch.

I just went downstairs and got my other switch(it is in my hand).The **** is solid and does NOT light.

Hope this helps

Glad I could help and keep you from going anywhere near a dealer.I cringe when I drive by my dealer.
