Were you able to find a solution?
I have a 2002 Sebring (it's called Cirrus LXi here) and have the same problem, except that the dash light stopped working one day without any probable cause.
The dealer told me that the light is embedded in the dash unit so they needed weeks to repair it and probably at a high cost.
I found this, but haven't tried:
