With the 04's, the screen is the only thing that's lit up until you turn on your headlights. Then everything is lit. Maybe your "illumination" signal from the headlights is screwy?

All the buttons are supposed to light up when you turn on the headlights, otherwise its just the lcd display. Check the fusebox on the left side of the dash behind the little cubby. You can just pull the whole cubby out and the fusebox is behind it. I have a suspicion that your ILLUMI fuse may be blown.
