Default Instrument Cluster Driver Info Display problem

At night when the lights are on, the "fuel" and "gauges" section look like
they are not on, all the others do light up. Do these have a bulbs that I have to replace or do I have to replace the part. Thanks, all info will be greatly appreciated.

Ive seen many threads on replacing the bulbs with LED's so Im sure you can replace the bulbs (not the whole part).

Not sure what is inside the housing, but contact JM Motoring and see what they can do for you in terms of an LED setup.

It looks like you already have it apart... why not just look and see? Unless that's not your picture?

You have a burned out bulb. One lamp illuminates both "fuel & gauge" buttons. The GM part number is 16056613. They are about $3.00 and you need to save the blue bulb cover on the burned out bulb and reinstall it on the new bulb.
