No, way way to much load, may cause a fire!

The number of bulbs a dimmer switch can control depends on the wattage rating of the dimmer switch and the individual bulbs. Consult the dimmer switch's specifications to determine the maximum total wattage it can handle, and then ensure the combined wattage of the bulbs you intend to use does not exceed this limit.
A dimmer switch is used for lighting loads and not heating loads. The wattage rating on a dimmer switch is what the manufacturer recommends as the maximum load that the switch can handle. For example if you have ten 100 watt lamps, the total load wattage would be 1000 watts (10 x 100). Too much load for a 600 watt rated dimmer switch but not for a 1000 Watt rated dimmer switch. So you can see that the rating on a dimmer switch governs the maximum wattage load that can be connected in the circuit that is to be controlled.
No, xenon lamps are not typically compatible with dimmer switches. Xenon lamps require a specific voltage to operate efficiently, and dimmer switches may not provide a constant level of voltage, which can lead to inconsistent lighting or may damage the lamp. It is recommended to use xenon lamps with standard on/off switches.
To adjust the lighting in your room using dimmer switches for lamps, simply turn the switch up or down to increase or decrease the brightness of the light. This allows you to create the desired ambiance and level of brightness in the room.
Try the dimmer switch which is on the steering column under the dash. Look under the dash around the side and top of the column. When you move the handle on the column it moves a rod that pushes the dimmer switch. Switch is probably bad.
Not really. This usually occurs when the dimmer switch is incompatible with the type of lamp being used or is going bad. If you've recently replaced the switch then check to see if the switch you used is suitable for use with halogen lamps. Halogen lamps draw more current than nomal incandescent lamps and if your switch was not made for use with this type of lamp you are creating an unsafe condition and a potential fire hazzard.
Could possibly be a dimmer switch for the Hi Beam lights
Most compact fluorescent lamps won't work with conventional dimmers, or will damage the dimmer.Magnetic dimmers will work, however. AnswerActually, it depends on the design of the lamp. Different companies have different power supplies for the lamps. What works well on one can spell instant death for another. Get a dimmable lamp. The new LED lamps have the same problem. Some work fine with a dimmer, provided one incandescent lamp is left in the fixture. Others go crazy.
The dont have front fog lights they are driving lamps. They come on automatically with full beam.
Probably because the dimmer switch is turned off. Turn the dimmer switch up and see if the dashlights and radio illumination lamps come on.
Although a dimmer can be designed for 12 v halogen lamps it is more common for dimmers to work on higher voltages. Dimmers have to work into a resistive load so it is not usually possible to place the dimmer on the high-voltage side of the 12 v transformer that comes with the lights.
