Dash lights dimmed with the headlight switch?

Re: problems with dash lights
I agree....with the lights on.....adjust your dimmer switch....watch the cluster, the radio and HVAC head......if none work, check the dimmer circuit.....if the radio and HVAC work, but the cluster doesn't, then you may have a cluster problem....

Re: problems with dash lights
If the lights did not change on the radio and HVAC control head, the dimmer circuit has to be checked...

You have a switch to manually turn your headlights on. Next to it is the little roller-type switch that adjusts the brightness of your dash lights. If you move that switch all the way to its brightest level and beyond, it should light up your dome light. That little roller switch is basically your dimmer circuit.

Re: problems with dash lights
If none of the dash lights are working , you likely have a bad headlight switch .
