yes, most probably ur bulb is burnt out, replace it. the temp and the 5000+ side of the tachometer is illuminated by one bulb.

There are five bulbs that illuminate the guage cluster. They are 12V, type 194 bulbs. One bulb lights up the fuel guage, one lights up the left side of the speedometer, one does both the right side of the speedometer and the left side of the tachometer, and the fifth bulb illuminates the right side of the tachometer and the whole temp. guage.

Swapping out the bulbs is very easy once you've taken off the appropriate dash trim pieces. I don't have any direct links for you, but if you search around you can find one pretty quickly. Takes about 15 minutes. Easy mod!

yeah you can put led blue bulbs...as long as they are 194 leds...also, be careful which ones you get, if you put the 4-leds, then it will have hot spots, by that I mean you will see spots on your dash where it will be brighter than the rest of the dash and it wont' look as good, get the 1-LED's, a little dimmer but bright enough to look good
