I'm working on a car that doesn't have any of the dash lights lit. The headlight switch works, but the dimmer doesn't. How can I test the dash lights by bypassing the headling switch? I checked that the bundle of brown ground wires, from the fuse panel are well grounded. I also checked the fuses and they appear fine.
Any other recommendations for tracking down this problem? -- Rob |

i also had no dash lights until i turned the knob that should adjust the brightness of the dash lights. i figured i "cleaned" the rheostat by wiping across it. still not bright but enough to see the tach and that other gauge to the right of it, whatever that's for.
