Lights on Steering wheel/power windows buring out

Hey, ive noticed that my lights have been burning out one by one. Started off with the door lock switch, the electric mirror (ldriver/passenger mirror) button and now the cruise comtrol button. Is there any how-to's to change them? Its a 2005

The Whole door switch plate is one unit and the bulbs are really not ment to be changed.

They could be wired like the old christmas tree lights where once a bulb goes out the other bulbs actually get brighter and burn out quicker but Im not sure.

For the cruise the switch will need to be replaced.

You sure they're LED's? I haven't looked at them but I can't see them being LED's and burning out already.

I was thinking that as well ,they could be a incadecent minature bulb.

If they are you should make sure your voltage regulator on the gen is working properly.

If the voltage goes to high(the faster you spin it the higher the voltage will go if the voltage regulator isnt working properly)the boulb will burn out prematurely.
