    I found many trucks made befor 2005 got bad dashboard buttons, yep, it is easy to swap with late (rubber buttons), more reliable pushbutton panel, but I wanna try to fix bad one.

    Really inside it is a resistor matrix. so I wanna try to solder in switches.

    Any tips, guys......

    Good work... Here it's probably cheaper to buy the whole unit rather than pay labor to fix it.

    Newer buttons are better. Old was so weak
