Default Gauge Light Went OuT, What To DO

Well, i was just driving the truck and using cruse control then shut the truck off then got back in after awhile and used cruse again and the light is suppose to come on when its cruise is on, well thsi time it didnt come on, so i meeses with the buttons to see it it was somthing like that, nothing, so im thinking the light for that went out is this possible or could it be a fuse? also how hard is it to replace? thankx

Is the cruise actually working, just no light, or is the cruise not working and there's no light?

I don't know if it's a single bulb or a whole LED cluster under there. The service manual might have some info that can help you:
