Default LCD display not illuminating

The climate control display does not illuminate at night, with my head lights on in my ’97 XK8. Can anyone tell me what I’m in for? What do I do to fix it?

Thanks again….

if every other light works.. then you just need two bulbs.. dealers sell them about $7 each..

All other lights work fine.How do I replace the bad bulbs? Iassume I have to pull the climate control unit. Is that a job for a Jag rookie like me or do I put it down on my wish list for the dealer?
Thanks again for the help......

My 01 Vanden Plas has the same issue, except it's just one side of the climate control display (so I guess it's just one bulb that's out). I understand that the dealer can fix it for around $100, but if I wanted to do it myself, how would I do it?

thanks

Remove center console and remove audio and climate panels.
