cruise buttons not illuminated?

[rednck21]

i picked up a nice 02 yesterday and the cruise works perfectly, but the buttons on the left side of the steering wheel are not illuminated at night. i didnt see a bulb to change...do i have to replace the whole left side button assembly? i searched and found nothing...

I'd like to make mine light up 1986 Ranger.
got to find an 1986 Lincoln or something...

Don't know if you have a replaceable bulb or not.
Guess you'll have to take it apart.

i have an 02 that did the same thing for the longest time i just had to smack behind the button a few times and it would work, after 2 years of doing that they work fine havent had a problem in months
