I just replaced the heater hose on my car and did the front brake pads, and I just got my 7 running again. BUT I think my dimmer switch is shot. None of my instrument lights will work, just the clock. The fuse is cool, but the little roller thing on the dimmer switch could be pushed in on one side. I took the entire switch out and I realized I don't need the switch. Full brightness all the time will work. If u got some info, holla back!

those dimmer switches go bad if hook up the 2 bullet connectors by the shifter, sounds like yours just plain broke though
