Assuming you have the hud controller and the dimmer doesn't do anything, the next question is was this HUD new? There is a light sensor at the top center of the HUD facing forward and it controls the brightness during the day time when the headlamps are off. Did you have a Tech 2 program in the RPO code for the HUD so that the BCM knows its there?

No tuning will help anything with this. So you have the intensity turned up and it's still dim? Is it dim at night? Day vs Night are two different sources of brightness commands.
