Hmmm...not sure about the 2000 models.
But you should definitely check your fuses and the bulb because...yes...stealerships DO actually do stuff like that.

You'll need to pop the bonnet to be sure.

The dashboard may be a "common item" that has that function possible whether you get ABS or not. They don't usually have separate dashboards, based on an option.
