Default Trip odometer button

I have a 96 Collector's Edition. The trip odo button will display odo and trip readings. However, the button will not reset the trip reading. Is the likely culprit the reset button or the circuit board?

Are you pushing and Holding the Trip/Odo to Reset, Because to Reset trip in my 93 you go to the Trip Setting and Push and Hold the Trip Rest (Bottom Right Button) and things "0" out

I would lean toward the Button, its a Low Volt System wouldn't take much Corrosion on contact to be a problem.

Maybe poor contact with the Harness Ribbon in the Back of the DIC.

Just one more point in Normal Operation, you need to Hold down the Reset for about 5 Seconds to reset but I'm betting that has been done many times.
