dash top light stays off

The top operates without any problem. The only announce is lack of top dash light indicator. The cut off switch at the back looks OK as the motor stops at the right moment. I wonder if it can be some relay or yet another switch or some dead LED within the cluster.

there is another microswitch located on the driver side top frame.
part number 98661310102



to confirm its not a burnt light, just open the ignition switch and the light should turn on for few seconds. if its not, start there.
hope it helps.
