5th gen accord topic:

ok, i was installing my painted gauge bezel and after i was all done, i reinstalled the guages for a test run...well i turned the key to ignition and the cruise control lamp didn't light up for the few seconds its supposed to (its suppost to right?).

anyway, i look in the manuel, and it says the bulb could be burnt out. so i tried removing the bulb (thinking i had a replacement one) but...i pulled it out and 3/4" of wire attached to the bulb came out with it (looks like i removed a non-removable bulb, i think)

well, i'm FREAKING OUT.... i took the cover peice of plastic off the back of the gauges and theres one big circuit board. i was affraid of taking that out, in fear the speedometer will come out with it.


so here's my question, if i take out that big circuit board...will i ruin my gauges...or can i take it out to get a new bulb to put back in
