I just replaced all 3 light bulbs on my 2010 RAV4. The hardest part was tightening these LED bulbs into the slot. These grooves weren't deep enough even for a smallest and thinnest flat head screw driver to fit inside the slot. After struggling for a while I managed to barely tighten. Thanks for this video.

[@BrandonStellmach]

Yeah that is one complaint I have about those bulbs. I did the same thing and tried about 5 different screw drivers and none of them seemed good. But glad the video helped out!

[@SachinSharma-br7mu]

That's awesome. I will be ordering them for myself. Thank you for the link!

[@BrandonStellmach]

Thanks for the support 🙏

[@envious-player8422]

Can you make a video on how to change the dashboard lights (speedometer area)

[@BrandonStellmach]

I will see what I can do. Because the problem with changing those out, they are soldered to the circuit board. And I’m not the best at soldering. But maybe in the future I will try!

[@rookiesantaana4513]

Thank you!

[@BrandonStellmach]

No problem! Thanks for supporting the channel!

[@muradsalameh5294]

Just changed these bro they look so good!

[@BrandonStellmach]

Such a cheap and easy mod to do for our cars!

[@vikitoto2000]

Very nice! Was thinking to do the same in mine, cheers!

[@BrandonStellmach]

Very easy mod, and makes the car look much nicer!

[@soldier001us]

Thank you.

[@BrandonStellmach]

No problem! 👍

[@steves470]

EXACT same situation for me right now, no light on the leftmost knob. This video will definitely help me out to fix it myself. Overall, so simple. Thanks again. One question .. do they dim, with the brightness control knob, like the old bulbs did?

[@BrandonStellmach]

Seems to be a common failure for some reason! And yes they dim and get brighter with the control knob!

[@realAamirShahzad]

​@@BrandonStellmachsame for me 🤦. Looks like Toyota cheaper out on that bulb lol

[@Pallidus_Rider]

Amazing difference 👍

[@BrandonStellmach]

Yeah it’s nice. Made the interior much cleaner at night!

[@leonardomoreno7380]

Great video dude! You know if i can change the lights of the cluster?

[@BrandonStellmach]

Thank you! 🙏 And I have seen people do it. It’s just not easy. The lights are soldered onto the circuit board. So if your good at soldering you might be able to do it.

[@sejinoh1970]

Thanks for this video. What do you mean polarity alignment? Is this trial and error thing to see if the bulbs light up?

[@BrandonStellmach]

the light bulbs have a positive and negative, and if they don't go in the correct position, they will not light up, and will need to be rotated 180 degrees.

[@stevenleyson728]

was the bulbs was just a snap on? or have to use screwdrivers? cause the part you change the bulbs where fastforwarded and thats is the critical part of the said repair.

[@BrandonStellmach]

The bulbs are a twist lock, which I recommend a flat head screw driver to help get them in and out.

[@bilalalhajaya9870]

You are amazing man I have benefited a lot from your channel 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻

[@BrandonStellmach]

Thank you! I’m glad the videos have helped out!

[@bilalalhajaya9870]

@@BrandonStellmach I want to help you, in My corolla has the lights running in the Air Conditioning Unit Which is in the middle only, while the rest of the lights (For example, the temperature control...) do not works when the headlights are turned on at night

[@BrandonStellmach]

@@bilalalhajaya9870 make sure the bulbs are in there properly. As well as make sure you have the polarity correct. So you might need to rotate them 180 degrees to get the positive on the correct side.

[@bilalalhajaya9870]

@@BrandonStellmach I'll do that and let you know what happens, thank you

[@BigHunt206]

Just replaced mine, but middle knob push button lights up but numbers don't, is there 2 bulbs for middle knob?

[@BrandonStellmach]

There is a light bulb for the numbers. And a soldered LED for the center push button. The center one can not be changed. But if you did install them and one of them isn’t lighting up. Then you might have it backwards. The polarity on these bulbs matter the orientation.

[@BigHunt206]

Thanks so much, that's probably my issue!!

[@kevincastaneda5694]

they also work for the board?

[@BrandonStellmach]

What board? The dash board? These will not work for the dash board, because they are soldered onto the circuit board.

[@krishpatel3663]

Do you know if we can change the color of the light on the dashboard by the odometer? It’s like a yellowish orange color on my Corolla 2011 and I want to change it to a blue and red color like it is in modern cars

[@BrandonStellmach]

The only issue with the odometer lights, they are soldered onto the board. So you need to know how to do soldering of small lights to change them out.

[@felixnieves19]

Hey I'm new on the channel and i just got my corolla 2012

[@BrandonStellmach]

That’s awesome! I got plenty of videos about my corolla!

[@popoygravy5118]

Sir does it have a fuse and where it is loctaed? I changed my bulbs but still ot wont light, even the bulb below the shifter cover. So i was thinking maybe its a case of blown fuse. Also, the fuse box cover of my corolla is gone so i dont know if theres a fuse for the ac control panel. Id love my ac dash to get the same look as yours. Thanks pls help

[@BrandonStellmach]

I’m not exactly sure if there is a fuse just for the climate lights, but it looks like sport number 4 on the fuses says switch illumination. I’m not sure if that might be it. But here’s a website so you can take a look at all the locations, just scroll down to see the interior fuse panel locations. www.autogenius.info/toyota-corolla-2009-2012-fuse-box-diagram/amp/

Hi Brandon, so there is only one bulb that illuminates the window heating button and the blower speed button?

[@BrandonStellmach]

The window heating button which is a deep orange color, which is the center button, this has its own led that is soldered onto the circuit board. And the blower speed button has a bulb that you can change, as I shown in the video.

[@matti2014]

@@BrandonStellmach Lovely, thanks 👍

[@stayupdated6903]

Hello. I noticed before replacing bulb your radio panel lights were not working too? Did i see it right. My radio panel lights were working and my radio light and temperature control dial light both went off at same time

[@BrandonStellmach]

My radio lights worked, I was only turning on the headlight switch, which would turn on the interior lights. But since I didn’t have the radio on, they didn’t show in the video.

[@stayupdated6903]

Hey thanks for the reply but little update. My diagnosis was wrong. They are two separate things. Found out my panel light had two options and you have to turn them on at the same time.

[@Timo-Epis]

Can you also use t5 or only t4.2?

[@BrandonStellmach]

It has to be a t4 or t4.2. Otherwise if you did a t5 it would be to big and not fit. I have the link in the description if you are looking for them.

[@Timo-Epis]

@@BrandonStellmach Thank you!!

[@elicyr1686]

Hello, I recently did this today, and the white lights (where the numbers are) are unfortunately still out. Any pointers?

[@HB4o8]

same exact situation i have; middle knob is still out even with new bulb :(

[@BrandonStellmach]

Make sure the polarity is correct. May need to take the bulb out and rotate 180 degrees.

[@reezwanulhaqueeashan1423]

what are the size of the bulb?

[@reezwanulhaqueeashan1423]

mm size what?

@@BrandonStellmach soket was t 4.2 right?

[@BrandonStellmach]

Yes it is

[@johndoe-db1ew]

so the LEDs you used are super bright or not?

[@BrandonStellmach]

Yes they are bright at night time, when you actually need them. Just during a sunny day it’s hard to see them light up. I should of should what they look like at night. Sorry about that!

[@johndoe-db1ew]

@@BrandonStellmach thanks bro! i changed them using the LEDs you used. the lights work really good. one problem thou, the indicator on top (the little square) is not lighting up. yours does?

[@BrandonStellmach]

@@johndoe-db1ew if your talking about the orange light, try to press the button in the middle. That is how that light turns on. If that’s not it, try to describe it better to me!

@@BrandonStellmach im talking about the little square that's right about the numbers of the AC. you know when turning up the AC from 1 to 2, or 3 to 4. there's a little indicator about the number but is not lighting up. I hope this helps

Wish I'd seen this when I had to go fix the blower position wire. (It's a PITA to do... Hope you never have to do it.)

That sucks, I guess I should of made this video sooner. I hope I don’t need to do that either!

[@ProjectBlackweather]

@@BrandonStellmach I had to do it last week. Took a couple hours and it being hot didn't help me. Didn't notice they were replaceable bulbs until I perused your backlog of vids. Wish the dash bulbs were replaceable too.

[@BrandonStellmach]

@@ProjectBlackweather sounds like a daunting task, it is much easier to replace the bulbs as you see.

i have a 2010 corolla type s and all my middle light like turning the ac on turns on , on all 3 in the middle but the light around it wont brighten or dim what could be the issue.?

[@BrandonStellmach]

That’s interesting, I have not heard of that. Is it because the bulbs that are in there are not dimmable?

[@leomunoz2422]

idk if the middle bulb you replace just turns on the middle light but the rest idk if there is another bulb that lights it. it used to dim but the middle is always been the same @@BrandonStellmach

@@leomunoz2422​​⁠if you are talking about the middle orange light, those do not dim with the dimmer switch on the car. But the other bulbs that I replace in this video should dim with the dimmer.
