Re: speedo light went out
1st you have to remove the bezel and all the screws,the fog light bezel,it's more helpful if you remove the dash cover front screws also.Lower the tilt wheel all the way down,After you do that,you will see the screws that hold in the Cluster,remove them,then you pull out on the cluster(it's plugged in) just make sure you remove all the crews in the BEZEL.I'm showing the bezel to show you where the screws are.

Yes.Don't know if you REMOVE a bulb,it might break the circuit.

If you have a dead bulb,... yes.
If there is a problem with the cluster printed circuit than anything on the broken circuit will be effected. ( Example; if it's a broken ground circuit,... everything using that ground will fail. )
