Default A/C module lights out. Blown fuse?

Car 2016 Jaguar XJ L 3.0 AWD

My A/C Module back lighting and gearshift lighting is out completely can anyone tell me which fuse to check?. I have a list of 5 fuses that I believe are potential culprits. If anyone knows which fuse it is I'd be extremely grateful for the direction.


Posted a pic below. All the back lighting in the pic is not working in my car


I grabbed this pic from another thread. Not my pic.

Do you have an owner's manual? That is where you can find a listing and location of every fuse in your vehicle along with a description of what they are related to. If you don't have a manual you can download one at no cost from the stickies on the homepage for this Forum.

I used it and swapped out all 5 relating to A/C module. Still don't have back lighting on A/C module. Just looking for anyone else that has experienced this Or any other Suggestions to fix it. Thanks for responding!

I weakly remember that i have been read that somebody fixed same issue by remowing the panel, opening it and soldered an crack solder from printed circuit board of the panel.
No idea who and where, but worth to try. I don´t think a single panel backlight will have own dedicated fuse.

First thing I would try is a "Hard Reset". That will clear the volatile memory in the electronic modules and restore them to their factory defaults. It's free and easy DIY, and ... you might get lucky!

Simply disconnect both cables from the battery and hold them together for at least 10 seconds. Remove the negative ground (black) cable first, and then the positive (red) cable. Make sure that you don't touch the battery terminals with those disconnected cables while you are holding them together. When you're finished holding the cables together, reattach the positive (red) cable first to the battery and then the negative (black) terminal. Note that the Battery Monitoring System module is attached to the negative cable.

See Post #3 in this 2013 thread for confirmation of this procedure by Forum Member "Brutal", who is Tech Certified.

Let us know if this worked.

Good luck!

Thanks for the responses. I'll try the hard reset first then if that doesn't work I'll pull the a/c panel out and check out the internals.
