What controls "lights" for power window switches in 1998 GTS?

What controls \"lights\" for power window switches in 1998 GTS?

What controls the illumination for the light switches in the center bezel of a 98 GTS? Is there a seperate fuse that controls these? I was messing with some wiring and now the little holes in lights switches don't light up anymore. THink I blew a fuse or wire. Is it seperate from all the others (speedo , tach, rear def, etc. lights?)

Thanks!

They have tiny gerbils in there...did you let them out?

The window switches are not illuminated. They are Caravan right hand window switches...they do have green LEDs in them..but no power is fed to them via the factory harness. I changed the LEDs to amber ( to match the dash lights), then made a small jumper to the correct pins in the window switch plugs. Now they light with the dash lights. If you want to make them work..I can go back and get the wiring colors, etc, together for you. LMK.

I took photos while everything was apart. If everyone can give me a bit of time, I will put together a "how-to" for the cookbook. Parts list, instructions coming soon!

Really?? I remembered I've seen lights coming from the window switches?? I recently put in a brand new sound system and there're no lights coming out from the switches ever since....seriously....i did remembered there're lights before....

Thanks Matt!

That would be an interesting project. If it's not too much trouble, would love to have it for a rainy day! And here in central Florida. A rainy day would be a blessing!
Can you say WORST DROUGHT IN DECADES??

They don't light. They are the switches from the Dodge Caravan. You can easily rig them to illuminate.
