Nissan Repair: 2003 Nissan Altima Climate Control lighting, 2003 nissan altima, climate control unit


Question
I have a '03 Nissan Altima 3.5 SE sedan which runs well but in the past year I have noticed that the backlighting on the climate control unit is no longer uniform. I attribute this to failing backlights. Is this correct and if so, how do I remove unit to replace backlights. Thanks!

Answer
Hi Pete -

To replace these bulbs, the front panel will have to be removed. I apologize ahead of time as without the car here it is hard to guide you. The process is different with various vehicles. I believe though, that the panel that houses the climate control comes out as a unit, whether it is screwed in or snapped in. Once out, then you can look into the back of the assembly and should be able to find the bulbs.

Hope thie helps -
aloha
