Angry 05 Surburban issues

I have a 2005 Suburban that has some quirky things going on...

#1 On the dash instrument panel, all the lights work except the part where you can see what gear you are in. I can never tell if I am in reverse, neutral, drive, etc.. If it's dark outside and I have the dash brightness all the way up, I can faintly see the gears. Otherwise I cannot. Maybe a fuse?

#2 the steering wheel has the controls on both sides, like volume, program, etc.. The buttons on the right side light up but the ones on the left do not. Could this be a fuse issue as well?

#3 wondering what is best to use on the liftgate to "grease" it up as well as the moving parts in the door jams?

Thank you for any help you can provide

Welcome to the forum.

Bulb issues are most likely bad bulbs.

White lithium grease is what owner's manual usually recommends.
