[s-cars] AUTO button on Climate Control

[Alvin Labonite]

I have a question since we are talking electornics here but my question migh
be off a little. Here it is: My autocheck/radio display is blank. If you
push on the autocheck pin or something, I get a beep but no display. Could
it be bulb? prolly not because it's lit. What say you?

Thanks.
