ScottThompson1982 Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 Hey I am trying to bypass a faulty dimmer switch , no lights in the dash . Anyone know which wires go where? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cuong Nguyen Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 (edited) Brake lights work? Check your fuses? a faulty or shorted illumination (wire for radio for aftermarket kits) will blow a fuse. You could pop the switch out and bypass the switch to test. Edited March 26, 2016 by Cuong Nguyen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slartibartfast Posted March 27, 2016 Share Posted March 27, 2016 Tail lights don't go through the dimmer switch. Do your front corner lights work? Could be the circuit that does your corners/tails isn't working. I don't remember which wires are which on the dimmer, but the dash illumination wires are pink with a different color of stripe for +/-, if that helps.

ScottThompson1982 Posted March 27, 2016 Author Share Posted March 27, 2016 Yeah, I cooked a fuse but was able to figure out which wires to connect to get the lights to stay on , im gonna leave it always on vs paying for a new dimmer. I only paid $850 for my Pathy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamzan Posted March 28, 2016 Share Posted March 28, 2016 Why not go to the junkyard and get a new one. Then it is fixed "properly" and you can dim the lights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpecialWarr Posted April 6, 2016 Share Posted April 6, 2016 Or you could spend $7 at The Source for a variable potentiometer and 3 minutes installing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
