Hmmm.. if I recall correctly, there are only two bulbs in the climate control unit. and they are located right in the middle between the sliders & buttons. if the top is working, then the bottom should be working. But, I could be wrong, it has been a while since I looked that closely at the CC.

Break out the voltmeter and ohm meter (multimeter) and go to town, its the only way to go.

I don't see what the problem is here man. We have an electrical connection that's acting flaky - which means you've got to use a multimeter and probe the paths to find the failure.

There's no other black magic going on.

Well you asked that. My response is that it's a flakey electrical connection.

You want an easy answer - when there isn't one - sorry man, it just requires a bunch of tedious work to find the solution pretty much.

It's true. I'm having the same problem as well but I've been too lazy to work with that. There are more important things to get down right now. But when the time comes and I'm feeling adventurous... well... the voltmeter comes out and we go exploring like Coronado.
