Default Speedo Light

My Speedometer light went out. I know its not a fuse. Is there a simple check I can do to fix this? All the other dash lights work.

How many bulbs illuminate the speedo?

Only the top half appears illuminated on my speedo.

Do I have to tear apart the dash part to get to it?

You can do it without taking the windscreen off but i wouldn't recommend it due to it being a pain in the a$$. So, take off your mirrors and your windscreen will pop right out, then there is 3 bolts holding your gauge cluster to the mounts. once the gauge cluster if off (after unplugging the wires) you will need a very small screw driver (fillips i believe) to take off the **** on the left side that resets your trip mileage. once that bad boy is off the block shroud will come right off and then you can take it from there!
