id start by pulling the switches out and running the VX while they are unplugged..if the light stays on you can be sure its a short not related to your switch...very easy.. 8 screws... two on the sides of the center console just infront of the little cupholder thing.. two on the sides of the center console on the very back towards the floor.. lift that piece up from the back, reach under and detach wire harness (theres a small tab you can depress, depress that and then a little pulling and it will come apart) and pull it over the ebrake handle (easier if ebrake is on) two screws behind the winter and power mode buttons you can see now that the rear piece of the console is off and two on the sides of the shifter console towards the front of the shifters... unscrew your 4wd knob (counterclockwise) then pull the back of the shifter console up and back and disconnect the wire harness for the P/W mode switches

to take the buttons out theres just two tabs on the underside of the console attached to the buttons, press them in and the buttons pop through the top of the console

to put it all back together do that stuff but backwards...

make sure you remember..
1. reconnect both wiring harnesses! (p/w modes in shifter console and mirrors/defroster in center console)

2. rear screws on shifter console! once you put the back part on you cant put them in without takin everything apart again

3. might help to have a friend help putting the rear piece back on because the seat belt buckles get in the way and end up under your console
