Switch backlights gone out

I have just recently put my centre console back on and the hazard, clock and rear demister back lights all do not come on. Could a blown fuse have caused this or is it just a coincidence that all three bulbs have blown at the same time? They were definitely working before I took the centre console out.

Any help would be appreciated.

What about the rest of the illumination as in speedometer, air re-circulation, air con switches, heater controls, ash tray, glovebox etc. All of the illumination is on one circuit so if its a fuse it all the illumination should have failed. The illumination bulbs can be very delicate and even a little knock after a pro longed time can break the filament.

Checked any fuses which may be related to interior lights and all seem fine. All the rest of the backlights work so will be replacing the bulbs and see how it goes. Thanks for suggestions and help. Will let you know if I manage to sort it.
