2010 Silverado LT-No radio display lights

Any chance of a fuse problem if the radio display lights don't work? Called a gn dealer and they said the radio needs to be replaced. Any idea of the cost? It works fine, but the display lights are so dim you can't make anything out, pain in the butt!!!

Welcome to the world of Silverado Dash light problems. The lights are part of the radio and pricey. Just look on Chevy forums and you will see all the dash light problems. Good Luck

I've tapped them very hard and they would come back on. Some guys I know used compressed air like the keyboard cleaner around the buttons with success. This is a known issue but not fuse related.

I've had dash light issues with previous silverado's but not the radio display!!

Sounds like a cracked circuit board, or a bad connector. Maybe a poor soldering job. I wonder if GM is ROHS compliant on those trucks? It caused a lot of trouble in the early days, and maybe still does.

I think I've encountered a problem like this in the majority of old(ish) Chevy trucks I've been in/owned. It's gotta be common, but I've never had the $$ or the inclination to worry much about it. Of course, the ones I've owned have been much, much older than yours.

If its out of warranty, you may want to look into a refurbished unit, or have yours rebuilt.

You may want to check your dash light dimmer/brightness adjuster?? I know on my 08 i can turn the rheostat type button and dim the dash lights way down to the point where it almost seems like they are off especially if it's bright out. Might be an easy fix... I know I turn it way down alot while night driving because the dash lights are so bright that it's distracting. Just a thought...
