HDC button.

Hi All,

So my 12v power output on the central console by the gear shifter has stopped being back lit when the dashboard is illuminated....it used to glow green like the rest of the dash, etc. Now I know is just a blown bulb under there and should a easy fix if I can work out how to get in there....but I've also noticed that the HDC button doesn't illuminate either on the terrain response panel. The terrain response symbols and the DSC all glow green. Now I can't ever recall if the HDC rocker switch did or did not glow green like the rest of the dash. It doesn't illuminate if activated the only reference to it being active is the warning symbol in the driver's dash and on the info panel.
So my question is.... Should the HDC button be back lit like everything else and should it illuminate say orange if activated?

It's driving my OCD wild now I've noticed it.... Rolling with laughter

Cheers Jeff (Freelander 2, 2011, SD4 XS)

If I remember rightly the HDC button isn't back lit on the vast majority.
It was on mine because I stripped it down and fitted LEDs and resistors - trial and error job with a big bag of resistors I seem to remember.

There was a posting on here on how to do it. Tangiers Orange - gone, missing her

Thanks for the info that what I though as I hadn't notice it back lit before the 12v socket attracted my attention.
