speedometer stick fading....WHY!?

The little red stick on my speedometer is getting hard to see at night. It looks as if the end of it that used to be lit up had a light burn out.....if a little light was in it. Anyway its almost impossible to see how fast i am going at night. I wonder if just my battery is getting low but it says it is running at 13 according to the meter. This happen to anyone, any suggestions? This is pretty much just the little red stick on the speedometer that i see the problem in. Thanks again.

Its probably just as you said, the light for it burned out.

It is probably the light at the base of the needle. It is what actually lights up the needle I beleive. Not too hard to replace either.

as of what you said, yeah its burnt out but not completely. Just it's dieing.. get a new one. (guess you figured that one out already lol )
