I've noticed that at least one of the bulbs on the heater controls on my Mk3 Astra has blown. The one(s) in question illuminate the control nearest to the driver which controls the direction of air flow, e.g.: windscreen, floor etc.
I can see why: whose bright idea was it to have these bulbs permanently switched on with the ignition? Dumbo
! They only need to come on with the lights.
Anyhow, is there an easy way to change them/it? I've looked in the Haynes manual and it looks like I'll need an engineering degree just to change a bulb!
On my older cars, switches and controls pull from the facia-panel bringing the bulbs with them ... is today's way really progress
