AC controls not working, 98

Yea, the snow was just a mess maker.....I hate the white stuff, just cold.
With manual controls, it could be as simple as the bulbs going.....sometimes they make contact, sometimes they do not.
Is this the "backlight"?

The Resistor is behind the Glove Box. It is secured with 2 Phillips screws. When you look under the GB, turn your head towards the fender side and you will see the plug. Resistors get old and fail over time. This resistor works with your AC Control Module, located behind the 2 Control *****. When it fails, you lose everything but the Fan Control. There is a Fan Control Relay in the box under your hood that may also have been damaged. It costs about $20. You need to take out the console plate and unplug everything to get to it. It's much easier than it sounds. Be careful not to crack the console when you pop it out. There is no need to take the whole console out. Once you unplug the 4-way flasher and clock, the console plate can be popped out allowing you to unplug the rest of the wiring.
If you search these threads enough, you will see that this is a common problem. I called a Honda dealer and his first thought was a Compressor failure. Who could of seen that coming?! As you get more miles, the resistor will begin to fail and your LED lights on the AC Panel will flicker. After a while they will not even work.

Marky C, could it be the evaporator temperature sensor? Looking at the diagram poorman provided, I don't see a resistor in the power supply line to the ac controls, just the sensor.
