Re: Does the dimmer switch affect dash lights?
As mentioned, the "Dash Lights Brightness Controller", [sometimes mistakenly called a dimmer switch] must be plugged in for most dash lights to work, [or the plug needs to be jumped, black to red] it supplies the ground, [through resistance] to the dash lights.
It has no effect on the heater, unless hbcrazy88 means the lights on the heater control panel. 94
