Traction Contol light out, help

The TC light in my dash has quit working. I am color blind and can't see the one on the button itself so, I really like seeing the one in the dash cluster. Anybody know how big of job it would be to fix the dash one? I like to do fun stuff and really want to know if I have the TC is off.
All help is appreciated.

EDIT: I just "brain farted" and haved cars confused. After just now reading page 13 in manual, I see the light only comes on (flashes) when active. I was confused thinking of OD off. So, my brain did skip a beat.

Ummm, I'm confused...What light in your dash? I just have the "OFF" light on the button. At this point, turning it off is like putting my seat belt on...I don't even realize I do it. It's just part of getting in my car. No chance of forgetting it then.

I agree...but might not be remembering correctly...I thought the indicator in the cluster only came on if the tires spun/tc was cutting power- might be thinking of another car though...
Anyway, I'm 99.9% sure the cluster uses all LEDs, and they should last basically forever- if theres a cluster light out, might be a clustr/SJB/water intrusion issue?

Now you got me wondering if I just "brain farted" and have cars confused. After just now reading page 13 in manual, I see the light only comes on (flashes) when active. I was confused thinking of OD off. So, my brain did skip a beat. Sorry, but thanks for pointing out the error of my ways.

PS I just turn off TC when I plan on playing. And that's not at all times.
