clock on trip computer went dark, bulb blew

One day I noticed the clock display had gone completely dark. I read online that it's probably just a burned-out bulb. The way to test is shine a flashlight at the clock & if you can still see it working, you only need a new bulb. They are part number 62111391260 & cost about $2 + shipping.

To replace it, pop out the trip computer -- push through the hole in the top of the tray directly below the computer -- you'll see the four bulbs across the top of the unit.

I ordered mine through PelicanParts.com, but they are cheap through the dealer as well.
