Default Help needed with dash lights

On my 2007 mondeo ST TDCI I have this problem with the left hand screen.

Everything lights up when lights are on apart from the left mini screen. It's winding me up. Anyone know the solution or why this has happened?

Cheers billy

It's just a bulb that has gone. Same happened on my old mk3, there's about 10 little bulbs that light up the dash. I used to fix it by giving the top of the dash a hard thump, in the end it gave up all together lol.

Pop the cluster out and find the blown bulb, they just twist out the back, just make sure you for the correct bulb you don't want to start melting your clocks
