My friend has a '05 4Runner with the message display thing that tells the temp and remaining distance on the tank of gas, those sorts of things.
The display is dim on one end.
I own a BMW with a similar display unit, and when this symptom comes up, there is light bulb that burns out -- there are really 4 light bulbs, and one or two of them fail.
In any case, I assume that the 4Runner is similar, and I was hoping somebody might know for certain how the display is held in place before my friend gets here and we see what it takes to fix this.
