Dashboard lights too dim and reset button does not work. Is it run by a fuse?

Hey can someone give me some advice? I have a 2008 Civic DX. But the dashboard reset button does not work and i cannot reset trip A or Trip B display or change the setting for the dimmer when the headlights are one which changed recently to very low while yhe headlights are on. Is it a fuse that controls the reset button and the button next to it? And now it says my oil life is 15 % but i just changed it 2 weeks ago and ive been told i can reset it . I saw a video how to do it but the reset button does not work

Try putting slight upward or downward pressure on the button and see if it works. The little contact pad on the circuit board might be worn out.
