a/c control panel light won't come on in my s14 zenki

[kenshinS14sks]

I don't even know what to put in the search criteria for this one. I've tried ac control panel, control panel light, all the combination of those words etc etc but couldn't come up with anything

Basically, the little guy with arrows being pointed towards him and the blue and red dashes and the numbers for the fan level haven't been on when i turn the headlights on... i just never thought of doing anything about it until recently when I started fixing random stuff on my car.

I have a S14 zenki and is there a fuse I could check? cuz the lights that I'm talking about randomly come on...once in a blue moon when they feel like it... but once i turn the car off and back on... they stay off. so i dont think its a blown fuse, but maybe a loose connection somewhere? any help on this guys?

edit: should this be in the tech section? if yes, could the mods please move it please? thanks a bunch :wiggle:

Bulbs are loose. Common problem.

it means your flux capasitor is out.

it also means that you're low on nitrous to drive like you're in Fast and the Furious :2f2f:
Search is in order for this one...HVAC illumination...TIA

[aznpoopy]

those things are supposed to light up? i didn't know that... :D

um another possible problem ->

dimmer control switch. if this thing doesn't really work properly, or goes out now and then, it can kill alot of the instrumentation lighting in your car.

^ True, but it's all or nothing. If only some are out, it's not the dimmer.

If you have a real technical question about your 240SX, try searching FreshAlloy first.

Just look at these replies..
