One light out - Toyota Yaris Forums

Aetre · 03-23-2013, 04:48 PM

I have a 2009 hatchback that has a nice, fully functional electric system, except for one lightbulb, which I'm wondering how exactly to go about replacing. It's probably an easy fix, but I've just never done it before.

The light in question is the top one of the three knobs that sits in the center, below the dashboard. It's the knob that controls the fan level and whether it's recycling cabin air or using outdoor air. The other two knobs' bulbs work perfectly, as does everything else electrical in the car, so I have to assume I simply have a case of a burnt out bulb.

But 1. How do I get at it? and 2. What's the bulb type/size and where can I get a replacement?

Thanks for any help in the matter.

Check out this thread for the part number of the little bulb for the AC controls:

Thanks; I'd done a brief search, but was mostly coming up with whole dashboard lighting or headlights.

Cheers. :)
