Question Should they light up ???

Should the on/off, steering wheel mounted, cruise control buttons on a '00 Explorer Sport light up ? All the rest of the switches do, including window & door lock ones, but not the on/off ones ?!

If so, any idea why they don't or what to do to get them to work ?

Thanx.......

The controls on my '02 4-door don't. I don't think I've seen any that light up in fact. Can anybody else confirm this?

BTW, where in SW PA are you? I'm in the South Hills of Pgh.

Yup. They're suppose to light up. That only applies to '95-'01 models. You can just replace the bulbs but good luck finding it because Ford only sell it with the assembly.
