Default Light for A/C display gone out

I've got a 2005 XK8. Recently the light on the display for the A/C has gone out, which is particularly inconvenient at night. Is there a particular fuse for this panel, or should I assume the panel light is shot? If the latter, how does one go about replacing the unit?

Thanks Mike, but the A/C and heat work just fine, both manually and on auto. Just the light is out. I guess I'll mention it at my next service visit.

The two light bulbs are probably burned out. You have to remove the center console which allows you to unscrew the radio stack and pull out the climate controller. Then you open up up controller and change out the bulbs.

Reverend Sam has a video on it here: Replacing the Climate Control Bulbs on a Jaguar XK8 - YouTube
