help dasboard light problem
need help ideas on how to troubleshoot dashboard lights problem
my '93 civic instrument lighting in dash board go on and off intermittently but are off more than on and i can not find the trouble is this a common familiar problem to anyone. occasionally riding along and they come on then 2-30mins - 2 hours later (random) they will be off, when they are on i can adjust brightness with dash light dimmer switch. i tried wiggling wires, banging dimmer switch, and looking at fuses in fuse box swapping for new one etc and nothing seems to produce the desired Cause/Effect need to diagnose and fix. any ideas ? rob |
