chris bowman Posted November 8, 2009 Share Posted November 8, 2009 have the above mondeo and there is no illumination on the steering column stalks including the audio conmtrol stalk and the cruise control buttons on the steering wheel when i turn the lights on. is this how it should be or am i looking for a fuse? all other illumination appears to work correctly in and out of the car.

So how do you see the cruise buttons on the steering wheel at night? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris bowman Posted November 13, 2009 Author Share Posted November 13, 2009 So how do you see the cruise buttons on the steering wheel at night? u can't thats what annoys me about cruise and the stereo stalk. would have thought these would be illuminated, but haynes schematics does not show bulbs in any of these as it does with other switches such as lights heater hazzard etc. if the markings on the switches were illuminous then i could probably see them.

GrahamH Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 I was going to ask Ford as I find it impossible to use at night. The Zafira I had before had all the steering controls illuminated. Suppose I may have to get some luminous paint as you suggest. :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mintalkin Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 there are raised sections on the buttons for night use, you have just got to remember which is which. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
