Default Climate Control lights are all out....

Just had a full stereo install in my car today......all went (relatively) well - got in the car this evening to find all the lights behind the climate control unit (except for the furthest left one) AND the light behind the clock are not lighting up anymore......which makes things rather dark and gloomy when driving along at nighttime.

Is this as simple as replacing the fuse, or does it sound like the installer guy has tripped a wire and blown the globes / resistors / whatever?

I cbf checking the fuse box now as I'm tired and it's cold outside, but just wanted to (hopefully) get some of your thoughts before I have a look at it in the morning.

The installer guy is coming back again next week to re-fit another amplifier, so if it's a wire he's mucked up, I'll just get him to fix it.........

Cheers, Dave.
