Last summer we made the jump from a pretty spartan '88 Audi to a '99 Passat 1.8T. We were dazzled by all the convenience lights at night in the VW: door switches, courtesy lights, lights behind the radio, etc.
In spite of all this, strangely there are no lights (at least functioning) behind the fan swith/heat regulator swith/and heat director switch. They are all but impossible to adjust correctly without having to turn on the overhead light.
The Question: should there normally be a light(s) behind these
3 switches?The owners manual wasn't much help in answering the question. As yet we haven't gone into the local VW dealer; maybe they could tell us, and maybe they couldn't (they don't seem to sell/service a lot of Passats).
In the meantime, any Passat afficinado that could answer this for us would be doing a big favor.
Thanks in advance,
