In my '05 KJ Sport, it appears as though the only illuminated switches are the front two power window switches in the master switch panel. I have searched various forums, and as near as I can tell, this is a design choice, not a part failure on my KJ - is that correct?
In searching, I found a guy in Greece who added LEDs to his rear power window and lock switches for a Dodge Caliber. Obviously different switches, but I was wondering if anyone has tried to add illumination to the other non-illuminated switches?
I got a spare rear window switch from a salvage yard to experiment with. The switches look identical to the switches I have on my XJ, except those are all properly illuminated. I tore my spare switch apart (how to do that can be found HERE) and I discovered that right smack dab in the middle of the switch... is a preinstalled LED. Why is this here but non-functional?
Before I go any further, I just wanted to see if anyone has any experience in this area.
