dial right hand side of the steering wheel
There should be a roll switch right next to your light switch on your dash to dim the lights with.
If you look to the left side of steering column, you will see the quarter holder and a flat looking plate- if you push in on the top of plate it will brighten the dash lightsand by pressing the bottom of it : it will dim the dash lights. The bad thing I have found is that you have to bighten or dim them every time you turn the lights off and back on. should do this while setting still as it is akward to doing while driving.
I have a 1983 GMC Sierra it has no dash,tail lights an brake lights are very dim
If you know where to change the odometer/tripmeter display... Instead of pushing that control, turn it counter-/clockwise to dim/brighten the dash lights.
because it is using up lots of power :)
You turn the trip odometer button on the dash.
have your battery and alternator checked but first check to see if switch for your dash lights are just turned to dim
Most dash lights have a setting knob to turn the dash lights on and off and to dim them, maybe this switch is off.
The dash lights will dim when the head lights come on. Check for a dimmer switch on your dash. It allows you to adjust the dash lights so they are not too bright and affect your nighttime vision. It may be set too low.
You could have a blown fuse, these lights may also have a knob to dim them make sure this is on.
could be the alternator is about to go out
On my zx2 there is a button on the lower part of the dash by the drivers door that you can brighten or dim the lights... Not sure this is your problem but it is worth a try ... I use it to dim them when driving at night..
