On my 2000 Ram they are not lit up. I have had the truck for 3 years and they never have since I have had it. I will look in the owners manual though and see if it says anything in there about it.

'01, no lights. Since I live on cruise control have no problem with buttons.
Left upper "On/Off"-lights up "CRUISE" on the bottom half of the digital odometer so you know it's on.
Left lower "SET"
Right upper "Accel Up"
Right lower "Accel Down'
Right center "Cancel"

Once you have it memorized it's easy.

Shott, I feel your pain. Can remember working 3 jobs, 7 days a week while taking a 2 year plus summer course at a local JC with classes 7:30 to 2:30, 5 days a week. 2-3 hours of sleep a night for 2+ years was no fun, but it will end.

Good luck.

On my 1997, the On/Off button lights, but the others, AFIK, do not.
