General Heater panel lights not working

[vexorg]

2015 pre-facelift car.
The right two controls on the heater panel dont light up at night.

Are there bulbs in there? or LEDs? Is it one bulb per control or per side?
If it is bulbs then what type of bulb is in there?

Found the answer on another fiat forum, looks like an easy change

Linky? Rasputin is doing the same ( had it down for a "Spring" job, when it's warmer.. )

Would need to search again, looks like you just prise the heater panel off, and two wedge type bulbs, one for each side.

I think, slide a piece of flex with the wires removed to grip the glass end of the bulb or something like that to pull out

So it is, didn't appear on a search for me.

Bulb type 2721 appears to be only getting hits on american sites, looks like T5(286) is the british/european equivalent to that.
