Dashboard Clocks Dimmer

Featured Replies

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.



May be worth picking up a second hand switch off ebay and swapping it? Probably only cheap so could be worth a try??

cheapest I could find £30.00 think I will try to clean first.

If you are going to remove the switch amd not quite sure how then have a look at my guides list for a how to.

thanks mate just been reading it great job,

my clocks are green are they very bright when turned up do you know?

thats max brightness which is more than enough to be honestpost-8800-0-39442500-1384456181_thumb.jp

I like my dash lights as dim as possible at night (definitely on mototways as the glare can really distract when it's dark)
