How to Replace the Central Console Bulbs in a Fiat Idea

Model: Fiat Idea MK 1 - Years 2003-2016
Part: Light bulb

If not all the controls on the central console light up when the headlights are turned on, it means the backlighting bulbs for the controls have blown. To replace these bulbs, first remove the car radio. Insert the appropriate extraction keys into the holes on the sides of the radio to release the securing clips and pull the radio out of its location, disconnecting the plugs. At this point, you can remove the bulb holders and replace all the bulbs (T5 fitting), checking their operation before refitting the bulb holders.
