Mine lights up  :)
Think it's been asked on here before & IIRC they're just dash bulbs?

I repaired one a few months ago, iirc, the bulb only lights up part of the switch and two surface mount LEDs light the rest of it through clear plastic 'light pipes'.
The leds just have a resistor to 12v, no transient protection or reverse protection so its no surprise that they died.

It must be annual 'panel light failure week'!!! Mine worked up until Monday night and now the foglight switches don't light up  :'(

Looks like i'd better put it on the list of things to do this weekend....
