Well if the car is a 98 then i think it is stored in the cluster itself so you would need to get it reprogramed.
What is wrong with the odometer? did the display go out or did it stop counting or something like that?

You need a new instrament cluster. It's one unit and when one thing goes out the only way to fix it is to replace the entire cluster. It's the new 'plug and play' type of auto repair. 2 out of my 4 Pontiacs have needed it done. There are no user accessable bulbs to replace.
theres a bulb there, i cant remember who did it, i think it's in teh sticky up top. but he changed it to blue

it's not 1 bulb, it's 3 LEDs. All 3 LEDs going out at once is like 1 in a quad-megazointillion. Chances are its simply the cluster as most the discussion is going.
