Do all my center console lights work?

[JZiggy]

Due to a blunder on my part, I managed to put 12V in the wrong direction through some of the bulbs in my center console area - lost the cigarette light, ashtray, etc. I think I have fixed them all, but let me know, am I missing any?

Here it is with with nothing on, and then with IGN on and headlights on.

Also, the rear window defroster light comes on when I punch the button. But is it supposed to be backlit too?
A/C button lights up when AC is in operation, as it should.
Forgot to open the ashtray but it's bulb works too.

I have a 2001 SR5 v6 with an auto trans.

I also recently removed my center console apart 4-5 times. My defrost button is backlit. Might want to check yours out.

The light on the defrost button in my 1999 only comes on when engaged/on, otherwise it's not backlit with just the headlights on.

A/C is backlit. Defrost and hazards are as well.

Defrost button should have a backlight. For the auto trans guys, the ECT button should also light up.

How do you change the backlight bulbs in the hazard, A/C, and defrost switches?

Good time to go LED:

There are little white plastic bulb bases- with a small flat head slot in them- on the AC and hazard switches. I'm not sure about the defrost. Mine hasn't worked since I did the swap, and I haven't replaced it yet.
Also- just FYI- you can't "put 12v the wrong way" through an incandescent lamp [emoji1360]

Rear Defrost, ECT, Hazard, AC should all be lit. The Cigarette Lighter is the only non-retail LED holdout, but there's a mod for that. Glovebox is ridiculous but I have no regrets going LED across the board.

I got all my LEDs from superbrightleds.com - which was all documented here http://www.toyota-4runner.org/3rd-gen-t4rs/160498-led-dash-lights-faqs.html
and another here

The results were great, zero regrets going LED

Would anyone mind posting up a picture of the rear defrost, hazard, and A/C buttons backlit? Just trying to make sure I know what my console is s'posed to look like.

Like I said, I have a 2001 so i'm not sure if your defrost is supposed to be backlit until you press it. My hazard button is lit but it's very weak even with LED and this photo does not capture it. The A/C is off but it lights up when used.

Where in the bay area are you?

Did replacing the lamps in the switches not work?
Here is a good pic of the DEF and AC-

Here is an obvious pic of the hazard lit up-

Google "4Runner dash lights", click "images", and you'll find plenty of pictures [emoji1360]
