Speed control - XLT 4.0 98

[atepas]

Good morning from Europe.
My 98 Explorer is equiped with speed control function and it works perfectly.
Reading the owners manual, I see that a warning light should appear in the instruments panel but it does not. Any idea? I have checked fuses and are OK.
Thanks

It sounds like the bulb is burned out.

Here is a write-up on how to replace the bulbs: http://www.explorerforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=210356

Thanks James, but the treat you mention is referring the bulbs in the steering wheel. I refer to the light of speed cont in the instruments cluster.
Thanks again

Sorry, I read it too fast and didn't realize you were talking about the light in the dash. Since the cruise is working correctly I still think that it is a burned out bulb. Here is a write-up to changing the gauge faces, you could use it as a reference to get the dash out and replace the bulb: Dead Link Removed
Since the cruise is working though IMHO it is not worth it to replace the bulb, it looks like a lot of work to get the dash out.

You are right James, I can live without the light is the dash. Bye
