Just verified this this morning on my 08 Sport.
Like I said, I could be wrong, I am just speaking from the experience I had with mine. I could read mine fine when the headlights were off, or during the day, but at night, with headlights on, it wouldn't illuminate and I couldn't read it. Are you assuming that because the display and numbers come on with the key, that that means its back lit? Not being an ass, just curious. I just went and looked at mine. Yes I could read it with the key on, but I don't believe that means its back lit. My advice to the OP is to follow the write ups and replace the bulbs, it will cost about $20 and 30min of his time. If that's not it, he has a problem I haven't read about before.
