Illumination wire. Connect it to your dash lights' 12v+ so that when you turn your lights on at night, the lights on the head unit dim so they aren't blindingly bright.
No. There is no illumination, speed or retained accesory power in the factory radio. It is accomplished with car's CANbus communication. To hookup illumination wire on 2006 VW Jetta, tap into white/black wire at the light switch. It dims your lights on your radio. You can also set up different color for day and night.
The radio display is usually tied to the dash board lights. As you raise or lower the illumination on the dash, the radio lights should change. During the day (with your headlights off), the radio display is at full brightness so it is easier to read in daylight.
the dash and radio lights are supposed to dim when the headlights come on. Make sure you have the brightness of the dash lights turned up as much as possible.
if your illumination wire is bare and touching the radio it will short it out

Yes there are several fuses inside for illumination. The best ones are the 10A, the red ones.
It happened to my Buick after I put in Stereo. The insulation was off one of the stereo wires causing a short which killed my dash lights.The stereo worked.My dash lights didn't.Check your radio wires and make sure its not grounding out.
Not enough info... If the lights are dim, there is an illumination wire that dims the lights when the headlights come on at night... could be a bad switch. If your lights are totally gone... so is your radio. It is a sealed unit not meant to be serviced. Even if you could find someone to repair it, by the time you were done, it would be cheaper to buy an aftermarket or an original factory Delco from eBay.
Probably because the dimmer switch is turned off. Turn the dimmer switch up and see if the dashlights and radio illumination lamps come on.
