Default Where is the sift **** pattern fuse?

My wife claims the P,N,D etc... next to the shift **** used to light up. Now it does not. Where is the fuse that does this? I honestly do not remember if it used to light up, lol. Any help is appreciated.

I did search! And I looked at the fuse box covers for what it might be.

Cool. How did you access the bulb? Does the cover pry up with a small screwdriver? Ill just throw a led in there as well.

Sorry about the outburst. It seems like lately I do a little searching/problem solving on the car, and then decide to post my problem only to have people that I should have searched. This happens on other forums also. I understand that you should search before posting but sometimes I just want fresh advice from a new post instead of piecing together old threads about what my peticular problem is. I did find the thread I was looking for to help me access the bulb. https://www.clublexus.com/forums/gs-...ator-bulb.html

I'll report back once I get my size 74 LED bulb from V-LED's in.
