Why do 1996 Chevy lumina instrument panel lights and radio stock display go out when headlights go on?
The instruments light dim for night driving when the headlights are turned on. Check to insure that your dash dimmer switch is on high. If it is, then you have a problem with either the dimmer switch or the wiring.

Where do you set the switch for the 1991 Plymouth voyager's interior lights so the dimmer works to shut them out?
On many cars, there is a dimmer switch which controls the instrument panel lights. If this switch is turned all the way, it may cause the overhead light to come on. The overhead light will then stay on even after doors have all been closed. Find the dimmer switch, close the doors, wait 30 seconds, and then turn the dimmer switch.
Why would the dimmer switch instrument panel light and taillights not be working on a Nissan 300ZX?
This happened on my car-it turned out to be a blown headlight fuse(15amp) and the hazzard switch on the left side instrument panel. Went to a junk yard and bought a new switch and replaced the blown fuse and ta-dah taillights I also replaced the dimmer switch also.
What is the difference between dimmer switch and headlight switch my high beams aren't working?
The dimmer switch if for the instrument panel lights. The high and low beam switch is for the headlights. On most older cars the high and low beam switch was on the floor. Most cars have it on the turn signal lever now.
1989 Chevrolet silveradothe parking lights and dash lights went outbut the head lights still workthe fuses are goodcould this be the dimmer light switch?
It is probably either the switch or a bad ground somewhere. Try the switch first. On my truck the switch itself is going bad. most of the time if you just keep turning the switch on and off then it will come on. If not you'll have to replace the switch. Logic tells us that IF the headlights [high and low beams] are WORKING, then the dedicated HEADLIGHT dimmer switch is OK, as the headlights are the only thing that dimmer switch controls. The HEADLIGHT dimmer switch is ONLY in the headlight circuit, not the other related circuits such as instrument panel and parking lights. On the other hand, there is a SEPERATE DIMMER switch, usually in the MAIN light switch, for controling the brightness of the instrument panel lights, and as answers 1 and 2 suggest, the problem is more likely in the main switch which controls the instrument and parking light circuits, but again, not in the switch dedicated to controlling high and low beam headlights.j3h.
Can a single pole switch can be use as a dimmer?
No a switch just opens and closes a circuit. A switch can be replaced by a dimmer switch. The dimmer switch will fit in the same enclosure that the switch is removed from.
