How do the window switches in the door illuminate? The up side of the rocker is not lighting on 1 switch. Are they bulbs that can be replaced, or just bite it and get a new switch?

I have the same issue. Just don't drive in the dark and you wont notice.

See my garage file for part numbers and whatnot.
IMHO, this site- the members that I chat with- and the ones that I now Hang with- are like my 2nd family. There is such an ongoing welcome feeling here that even members who don't or no longer own the MM can feel.

RoylPita,
Mine never lit up even when the car was new. I always wondered if they were supposed to light up. What does the master switch assembly go for?

Quick like a bunny.
My up arrow on my first switch doesn't light either, well actually it comes and goes. Sometimes it will light but most of the time it will not.
But my other switches are fine.
Weird

That is what happened to mine. I hads it replaced when it was still in base warranty.

If you drivers door is illuminated and the rest aren't unlock the windows using the window lockout switch. Found this out one night by accident. If you lock out all the window switches the leds go out in all the others. Unlock the window switches and they illuminate again. I though t the leds were out till I did that. If that's not the case then the master as RoyLPita said is bad.

I actually thought the drivers main up arrow wasnt supposed to light up. LOL. Mines been out since I got my MM, I just thought it was a reference to where your switches are in the dark and they are lit. You know the drivers has the up unlit then you know where the rest are. Maybe I'll look into that and see if I have a loose lead no sense in buying a new one for me as I've gotten used to it.

The only arrow that won't light is the up arrow on the drivers window. just started doing that AFTER the warranty ran out. Thanks for the input.

Everyting mentioned here (except passenger window switch illumination) indicates a bad driver's control module. I've replace one on each of my 3 Marauders now, and it's about 68 bucks as I recall, so, learn to feel your way around?
Installing/replacing the module in the driver's door is within the average owner's capability. It's as difficult as replacing a light switch in the laundry room...
No wait...It's easier than that. There's no deadly electricity to worry about, and no screws to turn.
