I have no lights on my climate control, climate control lights Options

[Celicagt1995]

Hi I have a few light problems in my car and Im hoping some one here can help me fix them.

1. First of all my climate control light are not turning on. Only 2 turn on. I already check for fuses but they seem to be fine.

2. The letters on the shifter and not lighting up at night. ( the P R N D 2 1) also no fuse blown and the speedometer has light and i think they use the same fuse.

3. I have seen some pictures of celicas with their sidemarkers on and mine don't light up at night. Is a 1995 celica not suppose to have light or are they blown.


If any one knows what is wrong with my light please help me fix them.

Lights are either blown or you've got loose wires. Since I pulled apart my CC unit for the lulz, it has not lit up from time to time. Generally I just give it a tap and it lights right up.

As for the shifter, the bulb is blown. It's a bitch to get to but it's a cheap bulb. Sidemarkers are probably also blown, they light up on my 95.

kk actually I just got the bulb for the shifter, it wasn't too hard but I cant tell if its blown or not. Im going to check the sidemarkers.

I guess the hardest one will be the climate control.

the CC lights are much easier than the shifter light. I still haven't figured out how to remove the shifter trim without cutting wires/breaking plastic.

The bottom row of lights on our gt4 cc is gone and the top row of lights on our ss3 is gone... I think its loose connection because they come back on sometimes.

I'm not sure about the 6th gen but the 4th gen climate controls are notorious for having bad/cracked solder joints on the back of the circuit, making the leds in there very intermittant as well as basic controls. This is remedied by taking out the climate control circuit board and resoldering all the connections on the back of it. I haven't pulled my 6g apart yet but it never hurts to resolder

it's simple...

when clocks are working fuse is fine (there is no separate fuse for climate) and you have only two ways to go...

a) there are 3bulbs inside so if some part of CC is illuminated just bulb is gone and you should replace it

b) none of 3 buls working... that might be more serious. when short circuit appears some "wires" on PCB may burned and they needs to be reconnected... you must identify which one on board it is and rewire it (I that happened to me once so I know what I'm talking about)

of course there is always possibility you will not figure oit. Than is only way to buy another climate
