Unhappy Interior Lighting Issues - Need Help

I need some help.

I have a 2002 F150 with some interior lighting issues.

Problem 1) The Compass and Temperature will not display at the top above the radio. Is it the bulb or a fuse?

Problem 2) The aftermarket radio is working fine but the ***** for the AC and everything on that console are not lighting up. They work fine but they don't light up. Is it a bulb or a fuse?

The cigarette lighter was not working but I changed the fuse and now it is. If the above problems are fuses which ones do I change? I can't tell from the diagram.

Any help is appreciated

Have you looked for any more bad fuses? The owners manual will tell you where fuses are at and what they do.

Check your fuses first. Then check a bulb that does not light up. If all that checks good probably a relay. Which one I don't know. Use the search tab on top of page, it really works.

The hvac lights not coming on are indeed the lights. The compass is more than likely a soldered connection on the back. Make sure all your wiring on your aftermarket stereo is secure.
