Inverter switch backlit?
Dumb question here. Is the inverter switch supposed to be backlit? I mean the light blue backlight, not the orange/green leds when the inverter is on.
I was driving after dark today and noticed it was dark, while the surrounding buttons were backlit. I know I tapped into one of those switches for the backlighting of my added switches. I just can’t remember if it was that one. Hoping someone can answer so I don’t have to take the dash back apart.

I don't think it is in mine either.

That's one of the biggest small annoyances I have with these vehicles. Half the switches to the left of the steering column aren't backlit and it's dumb.

That switch is not one that is backlit.

Thanks all! And yes, it does seem quite dark to the left of the steering column.
