Edge Evo programmed and now odometer light not working.. please help!

Like the title says.. I have an 07' 5.4L XLT. Just got my Edge Evolution programmer yesterday. Came home from work tonight installed it step by step read and re-read manual. Programmed it to level 1 first just to try it out and see how it did and felt like. Well first thing i noticed is my odometer backlight that used to be green is now not lighting up at all.. rest of dash lights seem to be a bit dim as well. Went back to my garage programmed it back to stock settings and still does not work. I have no idea what could of happened. It worked on the way home tonight so i know it had to have happened with the Edge. Anybody else had this problem or know of any info that could help???
Thanks!

There's a thread in here somewhere that talks about the instrument panel removal that is very good. I did it about 2-3 months ago for my mileage gauge light replacement. It is a very simple fix. Took about 30 minutes. Might try the search button and type in "dash removal"

Thanks for the help guys. I was unaware so many ppl had problems with their odometer backlight. I woulda swore it was related to my Edge. I actually pulled my cluster out last night and replaced the bulbs. No problems with the Edge what-so-ever. i love it.
