Climate control display on an A6 and a story

Hi there,

I noticed, this morning, that the area that illuminates the temperature in 
large numbers in the dashboard was dark. The numbers do change if I fuss with 
the + or - but it is no longer red like the other section which shows how 
hard the fan is blowing. The temp still changes with the numbers. So I'm 
thinking its a bulb or a fuse (the extent of my automotive electrical 
knowledge). Is this a big deal? Could I fix it myself? (yikes) TIA

Interesting quip. Me and my other half were driving to Long Island from New 
Jersey this past Sunday (a nightmare trip). Anyway, I let him drive (lucky 
man). About 20 minutes into the trip he said: "You know, this car drives a 
whole lot smoother at this speed (65mph) than my truck (a Toyota Tacoma)." 
This was delivered by himself with a totally straight face. I said: "Yeah, 
its amazing what another thirty thousand dollars will get you." Also with a 
straight face. LOL!
