Hey guys, i have a 2006 mazda 3 with climate control, and i was wondering if its normal that my middle dash ventilation option circle not to light up?

It's the one in the middle between the 3 of how hard the vent is gonna blow, and temperature wheel.

The dealership told me its not suppose to light up, but i just don't believe it cuz at night you can't even tell what you press.

So my exact question is, are the buttons on that circle thing suppose to light up or not???

Here is a picture of what mine looks like.

 

ok seriously, this is a mazda forum, and im pretty sure every other person could answer my question here.

its a yes or no question. I would REALLY appreciate the help!

 

that one doesn't light up, with running lights on the symbols for the air location should light up... and the single LED showing which mode it's currently in - like the top right as shown on your pic above.

 

wait...i didn't fully get that answer. so basically, the actual symbol, for example if it blows towards your feet, or face, or whatever, is that actual symbol suppose to light up?

i know the little single led above it, as in the top right of that wheel lights up, but does the actual logo light up? cuz unless you have it memorized, its hard to see at night which one to press.

 

The logos are supposed to light up when the rest of the dash icons light up - when your running lights are on.
I don't recall if it's one LED or many behind there, but something lights up the icons.

 

I am Actually having a similar problem but i dont have automatic climate control, i removed the factory radio to installa line out converter, reinstalled the stereo ( mind you not touching and other wires but the rear speaker wires) and now the backlights for my climate control ***** are not working, anyone have any ideas?
