I've never had an F150, did have a Ranger (same year), and I recall the light plugging into a slot behind the dash on the left side   Not sure, sorry!!

Thank you! Yes, after looking over better, I figured out how to gently remove everything in order to get to the back of the Instrument housing where bulbs are located... found the problem.... I think lol... on the back of the instrument housing is a "maze" of flat copper ... guess you might call this a circuit board (sorry, I don't know the names of the parts, can only describe what I see lol) it appears when I had the speedometer fixed that one of the copper "wires" or circuits was torn and is no longer connected.. these flat copper "wires" appear to lay in a grove running to various bulbs & parts.  As that is the only one that appears to be damaged, what would be the best way to repair or connect it back together... and if I did get it reconnected... would this work?  Know this probably isn't the best solution, but was thinking it might work temporarily.  Any suggestions or advise?  Thanks!
