Hi all.

on my 3.3L, the door mounted switches for the fuel filler door and trunk lid do not illuminate when the side lights are turned on. Is this as designed?

cheers,

Yes, nor does your door lock switch and window lockout button. Seems odd to me but hey.....mine don't.

 

Mine are the same... really stupid though... why illuminate half the buttons and not the other half... ???

 

that's why sonatas are cheaper than camrys and accords!

 

They illuminate the most used ones so you don't need to search for them. How often driving doen the road at night do you lock the doors, lock the windows or even crazier open the gas tank door or trunk?

Camry's and Accords get cheap too. My Sequoia has auto upand down windows for both driver and passenger. My mom's Camry just Drivers side like the Sonata. Now why do they lock all the passenger and rear switches when the window lock is pushed INCLUDING the drivers use of those????

 

If you have the TRIP COMPUTER feature, the TRIP and RESET buttons aren't illuminated either, although they look like they should be.

 

Yes, the door sills aren't illuminated either. someone could trip on the door and seriously hurt themselves!!!! :whistling:
