#1: New stereo - Now center console screen doesent light?!? Author: Tom206, Location: KENTPosted: Tue Apr 12, 2011 12:22 pm ---- Bit confused here... got a new stereo the other day and its been a pain to work because of all this multiplexed wiring... so now it turns on and off with the ignition as i hooked it up to the ignition live ciggy ligher wire. But it wont save any radio presets ect and also the top screen(ppt40) doesn't light? i can see there's the date, time ect on there but the its really dim and the bulbs dont work?
Any ideas?
Thanks

Try gently pushing the screen surround. Do they come on brighter? If so, all you need to do is take off the panel and twist the bulbs back into place. Simple.
