Default Replacing Dash Lights. How?

The TCS (! in a triangle) and the TCS symbol do not light up. What do i need to do to get this fixed. What would result in this, (a short or something more serious?) Do i just go to the dealership? What provides the light to those symbols?

BTW I bought it used and its a '03 7th gen accord. Thanks.

most likely under the hood in a little plastic black box with a pop off lid. should be in a top corner (most likely left) by your windsheld...and read the label and check for the light label you're looking for. it sounds like your saying hazard, but then again i dont know of a tcs because i'm 5th gen...but if ur just trying to get it to illuminate you may want to check the inside fuse box. located next to your clutch pedal (manny) or brake pedal (auto)

I see, wouldn't i just be able to take it to the dealership? What should I look for when I check the fuse?

no dealership needed, this is a simple task my boy...let me try to help you.i'm looking at my 5th gen fuse box cover and the closest i see to what you're describing is...interior light, and lighting relay..look for those on your fuse box cover and pull then out when your fingers or needlenose pliers (but not while the key is in the ignition) and you should easily be able to tell if the fuse is blown or not.

And if it is? What would I do? Also, the interior lights wouldn't they ALL be out? Only ONE light doesn't work on the dash. Not all of them.
