Jeremiah123 Posted June 24, 2020 Share Posted June 24, 2020 Have been testing to see why my dash lights wont come and and have been looking through a couple threads and figured it was my dimmer switch as my tail lights don't come on as well. Please let me know if you have one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slartibartfast Posted June 25, 2020 Share Posted June 25, 2020 A bad dimmer will take out the dash lights, but not the tail lights. Do your front corner lights work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeremiah123 Posted June 25, 2020 Author Share Posted June 25, 2020 I reconnected the dimmer switch to complete the circuit and the front corner lights did not come on. Only headlights, beams, and turn signals work. I'm assuming its a different problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slartibartfast Posted June 26, 2020 Share Posted June 26, 2020 Yeah, that's not the dimmer. When my dimmer died, all I lost were the dash lights. Check your fuses in the dashboard, I had a bad license plate light pop a fuse and take out the markers/plate lights/dash lights. If it's not that, could be the headlight switch. Mine was kind of temperamental on that circuit (wouldn't always turn on until I wiggled it) until I took it apart and cleaned it. Start with the fuse, though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeremiah123 Posted June 26, 2020 Author Share Posted June 26, 2020 Update, found a blown fuse for the tail lamp; now the corner lights and tail lights come on (thank you). Only thing that doesn't come on is the dash lights. I'm going to clean the connections then retest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
