Instrument Panel lights not working
Whenever I turn the **** on my 93 ZJ from "off" to the interior cluster lights, or all the way to the headlights, my radio dims way down, and I have zero gauge cluster lights. Bad bulb? Wiring? Any advice? Thanks guys.

Could be a bad dimmer switch. Does it have a separate dimmer control like my '97 ZJ did? What happens when you try to brighten the dash/gauge lights when the headlights are on?

Yeah, throughout my recent top end rebuild, front end work, brake work, etc, these guys have helped me every single step. It's very, very appreciated.
