shamus1 Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 hi folks just found a problem my stereo illumination was flickering at idle and have found the culprit the dimmer dial for the dash,if I set it for high the stereo illumination flickers but turn it down a touch it stops,i don't think its worked right since I had it because always thought clocks were not very bright so question is could I clean the switch with contact cleaner,many thanks.

jamesm182 Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 May be worth picking up a second hand switch off eBay and swapping it? Probably only cheap so could be worth a try?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shamus1 Posted November 14, 2013 Author Share Posted November 14, 2013 cheapest I could find £30.00 think I will try to clean first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stoney871 Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 I like my dash lights as dim as possible at night (definitely on mototways as the glare can really distract when it's dark) Sent using Ford OC mobile app Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
