Re: DASHBOARD LIGHTS HELP!!
when you turn on the lights, smack the dashboard and see if they turn on if they do, you need to replace your dimmer switch.
I had the same problem with my hatch and that fixed it for me

Please turn off the all caps.
Have you checked whether 7.5A dash fuse 30 is blown?
Have you tried dialing the dimmer switch to brighten the cluster lights? If so, pry the dimmer switch out the dash, unplug the dimmer switch connector, and then use a jumper wire to short the red wire to the black wire in the connector. When you turn on the parking lights, do the cluster lights now come on?

Re: DASHBOARD LIGHTS HELP!!
Could be a bad switch, wire, or motor. Start by checking whether the right side motor gets battery voltage at the Grn/Wht or Yel/Blk wire when the adjustment button is pushed.
