Default dim dash lights

Hi guys,
I am new to the site and I just wanted to say that I think it is awesome! Now my question...I have read other threads where the dash lights don't work when the head lights are turned on...my dash lights don't work when the head lights are off, very difficult to see.. I need to turn the head lights on during the daytime to see my speedo. I checked both fuses and they are good. My dash lights aren't very bright at night either.. when I put a flashlight to the sensor on the dash, they look to me the way they should be. (done at night) I have a 90 convertible. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I changed my headlight motors about a month ago, I hardly drive my Vette at night, well with my new motors in I decided to take her out one night,well my dash lights go off.Everything works but I cant see the radio stations or my dash,as soon as i put the lights down it all comes back to life. It was ok before the new motors went in.
