The bulb is inside the radio and works in conjunction with the radio switch not the light switch.

Ken, thank you but now I feel dumb. Wired everything up last night and couldn’t figure out the backlight. Go to garage after reading your post and turn the knob on the radio and boom, light comes on.

Thank you
