Dash lights will not illuminate

Hi, yesterday when i started my 2013 Explorer, i notice the left side of my dash does not light up. That's the side that shows the mileage and how much fuel i have left. The right side lights up perfectly. Has anyone else experienced this problem, and does anyone know to figure out whats wrong? Thanks

I'd start with checking all fuses, and relays. All of the locations for those are in your manual, or found online with an easy search. It most likely is a fuse.

It is impossible for a relay or fuse to cause this issue. Don't waste your time checking that.

Most likely, it's a failure of the IPC itself.
