Just a simple question here. I need to know the order of these wires that go to the dimmer switch.

The color of the wires are:
• Black - ground
• Red/Black - to dash lights
• Red - power

I just need to know which ones go to which pins. I've tried it before, but have either blown fuses or fried the switch.

i'll try to check on this for you tonight...

 

I would geuss at :

A) ground
B) interior lights
C) +

but dont trust me its just a educated guess hee

 

Get out a multi meter (VOM) and check it. The ground will have continuity with both, but on one the resistance will change. The one where the resistance is constant is the +12V, The one with the changing resistance is dash lights, and the other one is ground.

I would try the multi meter, but i don't have one nor do i have access to one. THanks for the heads up though.

 

breaka_1_9 thanks...if you could check, that would be awesome.

 

doh, i forgot. i'll try again tonight.
