Do the window switches not light? Flasher, and shifter? Anything else not work? Fuse maybe.

This is a "spider" light system...fiber optic cables that feed all the center console lights...there should only be only one light burned out. If I remember right, you can pull the ashtray and the radio to access the bad bulb...you will see a bunch of "wires" actually the fiber optic heading into one "spider"...change the bulb in the spider and you should have console lights again.

There should be one bulb for the fiber optics, four in the CCU, one in the flasher switch, one in the shift selector, and one LED in each window switch.

If the instrument cluster lamps work, the problem is not a fuse.
