  • HVAC control illumination problem ... globe??

    The three rotary controls below the radio in the upper centre console/dashboard light up when the headlights are on, but the left side is weakly illuminated (air direction control), the fan speed control a little stronger, and the heat control has normal brightness. This problem leads me to believe that there must be a globe each side, and the left one has failed, but I've been to a Toyota dealer and they can't tell me if the globes are a serviceable item, or if they're a fixed item within the control assembly. Hopefully someone has been in that area before and can advise what I'm up against.

    It's a neo wedge type globe. You can pull the centre console apart and get behind the controls and find the bulb size required. Plenty on ebay if you are after LED conversion.

        Thanks for your replies amts Now I know what I'm looking for I might even be able to identify the size using an endoscope, and get them, before ripping it apart.

        I find it amazing that the dealer, with all their resources, couldn't give sell me globes of the right size to have ready for replacement when I pulled it apart.

        Thanks again.

          It is either T4.2 or T4.8. It isn't clear on the parts diagram.
          Look for 55900B and then click on it.

            Brilliant ... thanks again amts. I think I'll probably go LED, in view of the degree of difficulty in getting to them.
