Default this bugs me... a lot

ok here's a list. anything that anyone can help out with, is as always much appreciated.
  1. i just recently noticed that the little light behind my defrost symbol is not working. the knob where you can select where the heat/ac goes. its the defrost only symbol and its the only one not lit up. i have no idea why this happened but id like to know how to fix it. i recently installed fogs but didn't go anywhere near the back of that knob to bump anything. but anything is possible
  2. ok second order of business, i know the jeep has a delayed shut off kind of deal where if you turn off your jeep but don't open the doors, the radio stays on for lets say a minute or two. mine also did that just fine up until 2 or 3 days ago. now, it just turns completely off when the key is turned all the way off. all id like to know with this is: is there something wrong? and if so what do i need to do?
  3. third order of business, this isn't something wrong more just a question or something to throw out there. i have a aftermarket SIRIUS satellite radio and it has the round magnet receiver, cigarette light plug-in for power and the faceplate to select music. is there anyway to hook that and/or wire it into the factory radio? the radio is set up for the SIRIUS i just never paid for the subscription when i bought the jeep.

First, it's really tough to read yellow font. You said you have a Sirrus equipment factory radio? Why use an after market radio when you can just activate the factory one? All you need to do is call them and transfer the service from the after market radio to the factory radio.

Do you have a hard top? If so have you removed it recently?

no its soft top. im almost certain i had sirius from the factory but i just never activated it. but now that i think about it i dunno if i ever found the satellite receiver? any idea if it looks anything like the aftermarket one? its basically just a round magnetic disc about 2"-3" in diameter.
