About to do this soon. Thnx for having this info

Ya i tried to jumper switch but it didnt work

so attempted to get it working by bypassing the dimmer switch but it still didn't work. that pretty much rules out the switch being faulty

Nothing? Im guessing your still havjng the same issues?

I know its been awhile but did you ever find a resolution to this issue? I am havjng the same prob now

Ok so here is the deal. the orange illumin wire that normally connects to the head unit, the function is supposed to be when you turn your headlights on the head unit should dim. for head units which do not have this function, from what ive read the wire is simply not used. my issue is that...

I was going to try and splice the turn on and illumination wire to a powered wire. any suggestions on which the best way is?

still nothing. I thought for sure we would have some experts on here

I've noticed the thread has been viewed 50 times with zero response. I am thinking that it is not an issue that happens like ever to anyone, which is always my luck? anyone atleast know the power source?

So as the title states my gauge lights and center stack lights for HVAC controls are not working. ive tried adjusting the knob with no results and I checked every freaking fuse in the car. Can someone please shed some light (pun intended) on this for me? I decided that this additional info...

Im sure there are multiple ways to test things in this situation but you might want to try for testing purposes only connecting RR and RL to FR and FL to see if you are getting sound to the rear speakers, if you are getting sound than I would say its possibly a problem with the head unit
