Hi Guys, Just traded my 97 for an 07 XL.There was no owners manual in the glovebox,so Im trying to figure out a couple of things..
First,Im "assuming" that the passengers side airbag is de-activated when there is either little,or no weight in the seat?My 97 had a ley activated switch to manually turn off the passengers side airbag....

Second...I noticed today that there is no backlighting for the LCD screen (odometer/trip meter).Either a lamp has pre-maturely burned out,or its just not supposed to be illuminated.If its supposed to be lit up,how do you get to the lamp?

Suggestions welcome as always!

 

Go here to download a .pdf copy of your manual

The link for manuals is on the left side.

 

The screen is supposed to light up. Here is the way to get to it. If you have any other questions, feel free to ask. My directions might be a little confusing:

you are corret with the pass, side airbag light . it has a few sevsor's in it so dont have to deal with key. i too also went from a 99 to a 07 4x4. i like it, also enjoy the auto tinting mirrors.
