Default Climate Control light

In my wifes 2003 Stratus, the far right light in the Climate Control panel is out causing the display to be invisible in the dark. Can this be replaced? Thanks in advance for the input.

If its like the 2000 then all you have to do is remove the trim. Pull off all the ***** and then use a pick to pull the tabs up on the front HVAC cover. There are 2 "37" bulbs there. Should not take more than 15 minutes.

Thanks for the info. Do the ***** just pull off, or is the special way to remove them?

TTT

Anyone have some input, I tried to remove the *****, with no luck and I don't want to break them. There has to be a way to remove the controls and the front panel to replace teh bulbs.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks

Very easy..just pull on the ***** and they come off. If they seem hard then use a small pick and use the pick in the crack of the face and **** and they will pop off. They only go on one way. The on/off with ac and mode with defrost come off the same way except the center push button stays on so do not pull on those. The white lines are on a plastic piece that maycome off with the **** too. Thise may fall off, but just watch them as they trasmit the light to the switch on those 2 ***** only.

Once those are off there are I think 3 clips on top and bottom of the face plate. Just use a pick again and it will pop right off. There are 2 "37" bulbs in there. Be careful when putting the new bulbs in as to much pressure will break the copper connector in the back.

All in all should take you about 5 or so minutes to remove everything.
