Default Dash illumination

Could someone let me know what should and shouldn't light up in the dash centre for a MY 2000 classic. All my heater dials/buttons light up OK but headlight wash, headlight height adjuster, "bright" switch (what a waste of time), heated rear window & hazzard switches don't illuminate at night. Thanks.

Here you go (about 4th post down on this link) - shout if you need help - LADS :: View topic - Switch Illumination


BTW - the lighting overview (what lights & doesn't) is at the bottom of the 4th post

Hi,i have just changed the bulbs in my hazzard,hrw and fog switches.I got the bulbs from maplins.
Clear ones BT43 12v wire end(0173)£1.29
Yellow ones PG81 12v wire end(1452)£0.99
May i advise you to use some small tweezers to twist wire around and also to remove the old bulbs
I was putting the job off as im not very patient but couldnt find switches at night was pi**ing me off so took the plunge and was surprised at how easy it is

Hmmm just realised this post is 5 years old,lol

That link above is not working for me, but from memory, I din't think the headlight adjuster switch lights up.

EDIT: contradicting myself: https://www.scoobynet.com/lighting-a...ts-switch.html
