Re: CJ dash lights not working
No.
I have the stock dash and the stock dash wiring harness in it.
I just had to run a dedicated ground from the dash to the battery
negative power bar post I made.
My dash lights are dual wire with their own ground. They plug into
plastic parts Bill, they need a ground wire.

Re: CJ dash lights not working
There are a couple that are just one wire come to think of it.
The dimmer still needs the wire ground tag on the dash from the
headlight switch.

Really!
I don't remember a dedicated ground to the dash panel on my '81 CJ5. My
