2007 F150 XL, 4.2 V6, 169K miles
My odometer/mileage indicator bulb sometimes doesn't light up upon starting the truck. I have to tap on the dash right above that area to get it to light up. I had my windshield replaced about (4) months ago and strange enough it didn't start doing this until AFTER the windshield was installed. I don't think the windshield install had anything to do with it..........unless I'm missing something here.
I think there's a short in there at the bulb/circuit board and/or the bulb is about to just go out for good and it's living on borrowed time.
I have the dreaded parking brake light that stays lit unless I move that huge connector on the upper left side of the cluster (solder joint on the circuit board needs a drop of solder) and am just waiting for the odometer/mileage light to die before I make any repairs and change out ALL of the bulbs.
Anyone else ever have the odometer/mileage tap on the dash to make it light up problem?
