It looks like I need to figure out how to test the Dash Light Brightness Controller. It does work, it dims the door switches, upper console, dash, radio. But the console switches, ambient lighting on the console and floor do not light up, in which the floor ambient lighting plugs into the console lighting. I bypassed those lights and plugged directly into the HVAC to eliminate any fault there. Looks like a taillight relay could be an issue after looking through wiring diagrams...but I don't have any issue of malfunction in the taillights or any other system on the car. I seem to have the issue on the LT Blue wire.. this wire seems to fall back to this Dash Light Brightness Controller, the black long knob that comes out of the cluster. If I turn this brightness all the way down, it goes to the tiniest possible light output barely seen to the eye.. That is what these malfunctioning switches are putting out.. so there is SOME type of light output, its just so minimum that you have to turn the headlight switch on and off in order to see the difference.
