remove the clear panel and the black bezel from your cluster and you will be left with the bare gagues...lift up the top of the cluster, it just peels, and hold it up to light..you will see the ABS icon. grab a small piece of electrical tape and cover up that LED. its not a light bulb.

Skippo's right. I told him about the easy fix-that-abs light method. A lot of the things that light up inside the car are LEDs. I did it myself

why risk breaking your cluster trying to remove that abs light, when you can just cover that bish up? The leds aren't exposed either (not sticking out like keys on your keyboard); it's stuck deep in plastic parts of the clusters frame

^ I dont believe so- I think the white plastic back removes from the black face and you have access.
