Toyota Truck dimmer problem ?

My daily driver, 1994 Yota gauge cluster dimmer recently started to fail at a pretty strange way. The failure describes itself that the other part of the speedometer doesn't want to go bright. (the part after 60 Mp/h) but all other gauges go bright if i use the dimmer.

Sorry for my English, hope you understand.

Just some time.

Do some seaching. Should be easy to find a gauge cluster bulb replacement thread.

Probably a 94 bulb.

Seems like them Led bulb's are the way to go. Although I will try to find these standard bulb's here in Iceland before reaching to online stores. So for a couple of days I won't let this one broken bulb bother me

Thanks for your help mister.
Best regards.
