Stereo backlight going out, any advice?
Have 40k on my HHR and noticed the stereo backlight going out on my car. On other GM's in the past I've had the same issue. Is there any recourse I can take to avoid paying to have this fixed?

Thanks for any help!

Have you checked if the dimmer is turned all the way down?

The closest I have come to that is if the dimmer is all the way down, the waterfall lights flicker a little. I just move the dimmer up a little.

All the lights in the center console - not just the radio.
