I am currently having a problem with my dimmer switch for my dash lights. I turn on my lights and my dash panel doesnt dim. (I have the digital gauge package.) They should dim a little and well, they dont. mad I work the switch and the interior lights come on but, the dash panel wont dim. Does anyone have a solution to the problem? Or, do I have to go and get another dimmer switch? Thanks in advance for your time!

I would get a NOS or junkyard replacement switch and swap. Before I did that I would check the current dimmer with a meter, see if maybe it is shorted or completely open. Also if I am not mistaken there's a daylight mode for the digital gauges but I am not sure how it works. Do you have twilight sentinel?

No, I wanted the twilight sentinel. But, I do not have it. I think I will do what you say and get a junkyard switch.

I see. Good luck. Might want to look in the service manual for more on troubleshooting.
