the earlier hilux's have a button which can be accessed on the cluster by pulling a small rubber bung out which is about the same location as the odometer reset but off to the left. if that makes any sense :roll: .

If its not a digital dash, you'll need to pull dash gauge cluster out and swap screw over to reset the light.

Its a 10min job.
And to pull the bulb you'll have to take out the cluster anyway.
