1. Does the 4x4 switch light up?
2. Does the power rear sliding switch light up?

OK, I have an 06, went to the garage fired it up, no lights, turned on the headlights both the 4X4 switch and the power rear sliding window switch light up. Both of those switches on my Ram look exactly like the ones in the picture. It should be safe to assume they should behave the same way.

Sweet. Thank you! Now have to go to the dealer and order the bulbs.

I don't believe there are separate bulbs in those switches like the HVAC has, you may want to pop that switch out (real easy to do) and check first.

Yea i called dodge and they don’t sell separate bulbs. Have to buy whole new switch.

4x4 switch $85
Rear sliding window switch $25

I thought i read somewhere on the Cummins forum ppl putting aftermarket bulbs and it working.

Ewww...sounds like LX's. Probably be easier to check Rockauto or maybe a used one off eBay (unless you like soldering lol...im not a fan myself).

Well did the ac control panel light bulbs and new panel for headlight switch. There is 3 lightbulbs for the ac panel and the bottom one doesn’t work. So I’m guessing there is something wrong with the panel itself. Not a big deal tho. At least it is lit up.

I still want to get a new 4wd switch and rear sliding window switch.
