Heater control lights

I have just had my heater servo motor replaced and the lights that show the air flow selector do not light up at night anymore, just a square light that shows it is own. But the buttons I thought that lit up show where the air is blowing out, such as floor, bi-level, panel, etc. Can you tell me how to get these working again as at night you have to turn on the overhead lights to see what position the air flow is in? Thank you for any assistance with this issue.

Sincerely,

Jim Knight

It could be whoever did the other work left an connector loose. If all other functions work, that would be my guess.

Thank you for the reply. I guess I should have also said " do these controls even light up?" I was under the assumption that they did light up but now looking back I cannot say for sure they did. But I am thinking they did because at night you cannot tell one button from the other button. Hopefully I can get this corrected by the person who worked on the heater servo to fix the lights. Thanks for response and hope someone can let me know for sure that these control buttons lit up at night when lights were on. Thanks and have a good new year!

I am seeing two different sets of lights in the AC and blower system in the schematics I have. So I would say that yes, there should be indicator lights.
