All your other lights work with headlights on? Like radio, climate control and are lights on in the hazard switches?

All other lights work, the two hazards on the cluster don't, but the hazard switch on the steering column does.

Are you using USDM wiring harness? If so you will have to install the dimmer somewhere, if is a jdm harness I wouldn't know.
