'99 GC - Dash won't dim
 

'99 GC 115k miles. Owned: 1 day.

Dash won't dim or interior lights come on by rotating switch on light
switch. For what its worth, car has an after market radio in it.

Thoughts appreciated.

Need a little more information. Tell me if I am correct. The dash lights
come on, but will not dim? When you rotate the knob counter-clockwise, the
interior light comes on, but if you rotate clock-wise, the interior light
goes off, but will not dim the dash lights?

If the above is true, then it sounds like the dimmer has died.

The dash lights come on with the lights but do not dim w/ the adj of
the knob. The knob has no affect on dash or interior lights.

Probably a bad switch in the knob. Not sure if it's a dealer item or a
junkyard item.
