    Hi: Quick related question I hope you or someone can answer. When I got my 2014, all of the switch backlight lamps were out, including the transmission quadrant. I replaced them all, but noted that while the Hazard switch was "kinda backlit" at night when the headlights are on, it does not blink on and off when you push the button to engage the 4-ways. I know: the green arrows blink on the cluster, and you get the "click-click", however this is the only hazard switch I can recall over the years in any of my cars over the years that doesn't blink on and off when you push/engage it. (like when the truck is shut off/not running.)

    Can you/anyone advise if there is a separate bulb in the switch that needs to be replaced? It's not a show stopper either way, I just don't want to needlessly remove all the stuff it will take and find out there is no bulb and I wasted my time and probably broke stuff in the process.

    Thanks!

    Mine showed 96 degrees early afternoon today cruising along on I90 west of Boston. The sensor is out front right behind the grille.
