Okay, on my ranger, the lights for the cruise control, only light up on the Left side, the ON/OFF buttons. Is the right side suppose to light up as well?

IF it is, how would I make them work?

I doubt there would be a bulb in there but that it would be more like an illuminated switch. Pop off the buttons and see what's behind them, if they're a sealed unit then you might want to get new switches or find a junkyard steering wheel

Crap.

I thought as much. I hope it's not a big hassle to make them work.

No, its not a big deal. take air bag assy. off, switches are right there. disconect and the pull apart real easy. Tiny little bulbs, pay attention to their oreintation in the little circuit board..... if you cant get bulbs locally ive got some.
