Do Jap have a light dim adjustment like the UK?

 

The other lights are meant to go dim when you put your lights on. Its the same with most cars.

yeh they got an adjustment, but its crap so you have it on full all the time neway

If they are very dim then maybe a bad connection or maybe the dimmer is bust.

If they're off completely then probably a fuse.

I think all the lights are on one multi pulg at the back of the clocks.

 

If you remove the top of the dash ( two screws) you should be able to get to the plugs with out taking out the clocks..

Hello Cully Z

 

I now have this exact same problem.

I have had my car garaged for a few months and am checking it over before spring.

 

Did you get sorted can you advise.

 

I dont think its a bulb as I think there are a few blue bulbs in the clock housing and all are off.

 

Where is the fuse for these lights ?

Where is the dimmer ?

 

Mine is a 91 JDM Manual TT.

 

Cheers

Found the dimmer ! But no joy there.

 

Found the fuse box and I reckon its the second row 3rd space back from bulkhead. As it reads Meter.

 

Same symptons as CullyZ no door chime no dash lights etc.

 

Any help appreciated.

 

Cheers

So I now reckon its the clear lens illumination on the top row of fuses.

Changed this and still not working.

 

Could it be the dimmer then ?

 

All other lights are OK ?

 

Cheers
