Instrument Panel LCD backlight bulb replacement

2004 Ford F-150 XLT. Can anyone tell me how to get to the backlight bulb behind my insturment panel LCD readout? I have 55K miles on the truck and the LCD readout is really hard to see even in the daylight hours. Also, what is the replacement bulb number? Many thanks

If your dimmer switch is turned all the way up, you probally need to repalce the lcds in the display, if you have a cold soldering pen, otherwise new display is other option

LCD Backlight

Thanks for your reply, however the LCD works but I have no backlighting to view it at night. I believe the backlighting bulb is burned out. I,m still looking for a way to get to the bulb.
