Default Cluster MILES.

i recently changed my cluster lights and changed it to TRIP A before I changed the lights. As i changed it I tried to put back the chip connected to the rectangular shape thing but it snapped off. and all the 3 tips fell off.
any way of redoing it to how many MILES i have in total instead of being it on TRIP A? thanks..

do you have to take out the whole CLUSTER? back or front of it?
can you tell me where to find that? a pic perhaps or something.. thanks.
im confused where it is sorry.. is it easy? just a switch?



edit: do you mean this switch or something else? if so, i can't press the intact anymore because the chip fell off, so did the rectangular thing that holds it in place with the 3 metal tips that suppose to press it.

there are 2 plastic doors on top of the plastic... carefully pry them open them with a small screwdriver and underneath there are 2 phillips screws... remove the screws and gently pull the surround away from the guages as there are pop in clips on the bottom make sure the wheel tilt is down... gently unplug the switches and replace in the oppisite order withe the new surround
