Honda is very aware of this issue with the board on the radio going back but are unwilling to make good on this bad design

The backlight on my radio for my 2006 Honda Accord went out the other day. It had gone out for about 10 min about 6 months ago but came back on. All of the other light for the dash are working fine. I just can't see the radio when the sun goes down.
I am going to check and make sure that it is not a fuse or a loose connection somewhere since all of the other lights are working.
In my reading I see that the 2003-2004 models had the same problem and a service bulletin/recall was issued and that the radio was changed in the 2005 to present models.
They are going to charge me $60 to check to see what the problem is and if it is under warranty or service bulletin it will cover that cost and the repair. I have a feeling this is going to be an expensive repair. If they give me a crazy quote I will just upgrade my radio.
