In an earlier message (a few weeks ago) I indicated that my dash lights come
on when I turn the headlights on but then will go off to maybe come back on
in a few minutes maybe not. I changed the license plate lights and it still
happens. A few people suggested I check the dimming switch. Since I had
just bought the car I did not have all the information. Now the same
problem occurs but the center console lights had never come on. The come on
sometimes along with the rest of the dash lights and the dimmer works
perfectly, they never turn off when this happens. Other times just the dash
lights come on, the dimmer does not work and fiddling with it does nothing,
they go out after a few minutes and might come back on, only to turn off
again. Any thoughts? Could it be just the dimmer switch is malfunctioning?
Or is it the relay above the glove box (another suggestion last time?) I
am not much of an electrician but if I can figure out what is wrong I have
freinds who could help me fix the problem. Any suggestions are welcome.
