Lights on the steering wheel buttons stopped working

[Jsrconst]

22MYP The lights on the steering wheel buttons stopped working. I checked the menu, and they are turned on. Have turned them off and on to see if it helped and it did not. Are there bulbs in the steering wheel that need to be changed? Can I change them?
I also have a 23MXLR and the steering wheel button lights flicker all the time.
Thanks,

Yep! You can touch Controls > Lights > Steering Wheel Lights. If on, they turn on whenever headlights are on.

They only come on when the headlights are on. There is no bulb to change. Everything is LED.

Then what led do I need to replace to make them work? Do you have a part number?

Probably need to replace the panel with the scrollwheels on it, which has the arrows with the embedded lights.

The car is about two years old, would this be on warranty? Thanks for the info

It should be under warranty. You should check your sales information to see what you bought.

If an illuminated light, one without easily swappable part, doesnt work, that to me is a clear warrantiable issue

. . . and always be careful working around an airbag. Like for instance don't sit there chewing on a pencil !

Try rebooting
And let the car do a deep sleep overnight, that means no Sentry Mode.

The steering wheel LED's were never very bright, even in the dark
