2006 suburban rsa module illumination doesn't work
I have a 2006 suburban LT with sunroof and DVD. The rsa module works just fine but none of the bulbs will illuminate when the headlights are on. The actual display works fine but you can't see the controls in the dark. I bought another from eBay and plugged it in. Same problem. Disassembled them and checked the 5 bulbs and they seem good. What am I missing? Also my steering wheel controls don't illuminate except for one button, the back button with the arrow on it. Could this be related? Is there a fuse somewhere that could cause this? Thanks for the help. Just to clarify, it's the controls in the back seat in the console for radio and hvac.
Re: 2006 suburban rsa module illumination doesn't work
These lights just normally go out over time, especially the steering wheel controls. The unit you got off of ebay probably had the same issue and that's why someone sold it. If you're getting power to the unit, which you obviously are, the lights should work if they are good. There isn't a separate feed for the illumination, it's just controlled by the serial data line, and if you had a problem with that, there would be multiple trouble codes set.
Solution: Buy a new GM rear seat audio unit, and new steering wheel controls if you want the lights to work.
