I searched around but my problem is a lil different from everyone elses. My accessories work and everything else is fine. dimmer switch works, wipers work, dome light radio everything works but the light behind the dash clock is out. Not the fuses, not the tcu, what could it be? could the led or whatever it is that lights it up went out? any ideas? ill check some more in the morning when i can see

Probably the bulb, mate.
Pop out the cluster, take out the bulb and hop on down to the local vatozone, and get a new one
Problem solved.

^that sounds right. I did mine a few months back and change the color of the cluster lights to red.

That's what head units are for!

Lazyness will prevent you from taking out your cluster
