How to Replace the Bulbs in the Central Console of a Fiat Qubo

Model: Fiat Qubo MK 1 - Years 2008-2019
Part: Dashboard

If the central console of the dashboard does not illuminate when the headlights are turned on, it means that the relevant backlighting bulbs (T5 fitting) have blown. To replace them, you must remove the console itself, starting by taking out the hazard light switch located in the centre to access the fixing screw of the frame. To complete the removal of the frame, you also need to take out the glove compartment and remove the trim applied to the sides of the console. Only then can you detach the climate control switch panel and replace the bulbs.
