06 information panel light

[trentster]

2006 SR5, anyone know what the fix is for a half lit information panel? The panel that displays inside/outside temp, time, and fuel mileage left below radio is only half lit up. The left side of it has no back light. thanks!!!

It's easy, search for the tutorial on how to remove the center controls, it's one bolt and then you pry open the console. The display you mentioned has to small lights, replace the one that doesn't work. I just did mine this week. I order the light from a toyota dealer, around $4.

I just swapped mine out today...the right side of mine went out. I ended up buying 2 bulbs & replacing the left side too. It literally took me 5 minutes total, & I'm not much of a car guy. You'll need part number 90010-09017. If you have questions on how to remove the HVAC controls, just search YouTube.

Here's a link to the light bulb you'll need:
