Default Instrument switch lighting question

Hey guys, I just picked up a new to me 2005 GX470 and I have quick question. On the drive home from the dealer, I noticed that the passenger side heated seat switch does not have the green backlighting that the other switches have. Is this normal? Also, the CDL switch doesn't light up either. It seems like the other lights work fine. Maybe someone could take a picture of their center console at night to show which buttons are supposed to be lighted?

I have a warranty so getting anything fixed is not going to be a cost issue, just don't want to look like a dope going in to the dealer if this is normal.

I tried searching the forum, but couldn't find anything.

Thanks for your help!

Welcome to ClubLexus! Yes, those switches should be lit up. My drivers Heated seat light went out last winter and the dealer had to replace the backlight. I think it cost about $75.00, which I thought was a lot but then again they did it and did not scratch up the wood or damage on the dash so I guess that is part of what you pay for. Just take it to the dealer and they will get you fixed up.
