Probably just failed. Wiggle the connection to see if that cures it. If not get another one off ebay

The bulb behind the display will need replacing. Shine a torch on the front of it and see if you can barely see the numbers actually working.
This is the first bulb to always fail on the dash (pigmy type) because it's lit up all the time as soon as you start the car, weather headlights are on or off..
