Default Is your passenger side temperature control button lighted

I recently bought a 2004 LS430 and was wondering if the passenger side temperature control button is lighted at night. My driver side is but passenger side is not. Thanks.

Buy a new bulb and replace it inside the switch, it's easy.

$350?!?!?!?!? #%+^*}!!!!!! The bulb is just a few dollars. Use a wide spade-type tool like a spatula or something to pry out the switch, don't damage the soft part of the dash. It easily comes out. Then replace the bulb and push the switchback in place. Takes 5 minutes tops.
