Check Engine Light doesn't come on

I just failed inspection due to the Service Light not appearing when i turn the ignition to ON. Everything passed but would this be a fuse issue as my dome light stopped working a while back and I checked all the common fuses and they were fine. all the rest of the lights work when you put in to ON position.

Most likely the light burnt out. You can replace it with a LED and it should be good for the rest of the cars life. Somewhere on here is the bulb size. I forgot what size it was. If you have a color of bulb you want your dash to be you might as well change the color while you have the cluster out.

Don't use LED in your cluster. Every other places on the car are fine.

So you guys think its just a light bulb, is the cluster easy to remove and any advise on the dome light as well. fuse are fine too, but if i do the switch to ON or Middle switch nothing happens.
