Are you sure it's the switch? If it is, thanks for the help

Do any of your dash lights work (heater, etc) ? If you have other dash lights and no cluster, it could be a bad trace (torn) or dirty contact on the plug.

Heater controls light up on mine, it's just the whole cluster that's out. How'd you take off the dimmer switch? I'm from the EK forum, just got this ED3 so I'm not familiar with taking it apart yet.
