Is it in the shape of an indian head under the Speedo? I used to think there was a crack in my speedo, but it was me having my high beams on and not knowing that is was an indian head. Try pushing in the high beam switch under you parking break and see if it turns off. If not we may be able to help you if you tell us what is illuminated.
