Problem: Instrument Cluster Light Dimmer Failed

The instrument lights will not come on unless I turn the headlamp/dimmer knob full clockwise to the detent which turns them on full intensity (and also turns on overhead interior lights).

Before I purchase this light dimmer module, I would at least like to check for power and gnd on the dimmer module connector to confirm they are OK.

Anyone have a electrical schematic or manual for this item?

Also any ideas to troubleshoot this would be appreciated.

Thanks for any ideas.

Update: I found one of these on RockAuto for under $40. Gonna give it a try.

It might be the headlight switch? Do you have running/tail lights?

If no tail lights or dash lights, just headlights, its headlight switch.

Go to Junkyard & get a 96 or 97 switch but 95 will work. Its only 3-4 torx screws holding instrument panel trim in and 3-4 screws holding switch in.
