instument clister dimmer control not working
A few days ago the dimmer control the the left-hand control stalk of my
'03 TJ Sahara stopped working. The instrument panel and radio lighting
is now always full-brightness when on. In addition, the interior light
switch no longer turns on the interior lights (though opening a door
turns them on).
Has anyone else seen this? If so do you know a fix?
The vehicle is still under warranty so I can take it back to the dealer,
but I thought I'd ask here first in case someone has experienced this
before.

Mine didn't work so hot after I used it to launch a sea-doo at Pismo
Beach...you haven't been doing any ocean driving recently, have you?
Check your fuses first. If all are good, I'm guessing either dirty
contacts on the rheostat, cold solder joint somewhere, or a flaky
circuit board. As much of a PITA as it is to take it to the dealer, I'd
say take advantage of the warranty.
