Default Dash Dimness???HHHHEEEELLLLPPPP

I am troublrshooting an oil pump problem, bamm my dash goes extremely dim, so its even harder to read the Oil pressure :smash: Do you all think it is the bulbs behind the dash. You can barely read the clucter, but all are working they are just barely redable, and must be in the garage where its dark????? Thanks

What happens if you take a small flashlight and shine it into the solar cell in the upper left corner of your dash. Is there any difference at all in brightness?

Can you change the brightness by rotating your headlight ****? The pot on the headlight control may have become disconnected or open circuit.
