Center console lights sometimes go out
I have a 2004 LS430. The center console lights sometimes go out. All the functions seem to work, but the buttons are hard to see at night when the lights go out. The lights include the map, radio and climate buttons. There must be a flaky wire. Does anyone have the electrical wiring diagram that would include the offending wire? Thank you.

I had the same problem with my 04 and sometimes smacking (lightly) would cause the light to come and then eventually, this didn't work anymore. Just replace the light in the counsel. We are talking about the light indicating which gear your in, right?
It was super easy to replace and can be in 5 mins or less. I LED'd mine, more bright and cool. Its a #74

It looks like the wires are behind the screen. How do I remove the screen? I can remove all the stuff below the screen down to the gear shift.
I think my issue has something to do with the day/night sensor for the screen. Where would that be in the car?
