Welcome to the forum.

Some of the laterhead units can't be repaired, even for something so small as a light bulb. Contact a dealer and see if light bulbs are available for your radio. Getting the radio out is not a hard job.

As for the S60 environment control panel:

It is not really necessary to disconnect the battery negative lead, but it is advisable. The removal procedure simply calls for the ignition to be switched 'Off' and the key removed to prevent accidental operation. A 3 minute waiting period is then called for.

Put the gear selector in the rear most position then remove the panel around the gear lever by prising out the rear edge with a weather strip tool. If you don't have a weather strip tool then use a small screwdriver after taping the edge of the panel to avoid scratching it.

You will see two screws on the lower edge of the environment control panel. Remove them.

The environment control panel and the radio are joined with mounting hooks. To remove the environment control panel gently angle it outwards so that you can insert two fingers behind it. At the same time pull the panel down keeping the same angle. The panel is securely fastened so some force is required to remove it. Disconnect the connectors and remove the panel.

The bulbs in the environment control panel are easy to replace as they are simply a twist and pull on the bulb holder. If any of the switch lights is not working it requires replacement of the switch.

When removing the environment control panel it is possible that some of the hooks may have broken off. If any of the retaining hooks snap off rectify it by using double sided adhesive tape to fasten the 3.5 mmthick component measuring 20 x 20 mm to the reverse of the environment panel. Fix the other side with double sided adhesive tape so there is a solid anchorage when reinstalling against the centre console.
