Heating control problem

[t5frankie]

Hi on my heater controls in my w210 they dont illuminate when the lights are on in the dark making it hard to see what you're doing, anyone else had this problem?

I'm not sure as I'm not familiar with E55's but probably blown bulb/s in the back of the unit. Sorry don't have a clue how it comes out, but hopefully someone who does will be along.

Do you have the rotary controls...or the digital unit? If the latter...there's just one bulb, accessed by pulling the unit out.

If the rotary...someone will know.

The E55 had digital Climate control as standard, as above there is just one bulb, you will need to remove the display unit and on the underside there is a bulb holder just turn it 90% to release it.
To remove the unit just use the standard MB stereo release keys, as shown in the e-bay link below, you could also buy them from Halfrauds I believe.
