Cut the wire at each connector end, install a piece of wire in between.

Can you please point exactly were do I need to connect. One point is the DIM, that’s o.K. The other point is not clear to me. Can you please point it for me on the diagram? (The attachment)
Thanks

If the wire to the DIM is the one that is shorted, then it should be terminal B4, and there should only be one yellow wire in that cavity.

Yes, in B4 there is only one yellow terminal.

Is that’s how I need to do the bypass?

Cut the wire at b4, connect and run an auxiliary wire to the dim terminal. If your fuse no longer blows, which should be the case if your diagnosis was correct, then you have bypassed your shorted wire.

I Cut the wire at b4, and connect it (with a auxiliary wire) to the dim terminal, passenger side front).
The fuse did not burn, but I also still didn’t have the backlight in the switches on the IE. ? What can be wrong?

Have you perhaps got the wrong wire at the DIM? It should be a yellow wire pin H, at the 10 pin blue connector C1. There aare two yellow wires in that connector, one is pin H in the middle, and one is pin K, on an end. H is the circuit you are after.

I may get it wrong, So I attached a pics to C1 and the yellow wires. I did cut in yellow #2 and did the bypass.
Can you please look if that’s the right one?

Yes I did the bypass between The DIM (pin 10 blue connector that’s connect to the DIM left side ((one of 3 plugs)) And the fuse box yellow wire #2 as in the pics.
Is that not right?

If you did pin 10 at the DIM, that is incorrect. The pins are actually letter designated, and you did pin K. The other yellow should be in the middle of that connector, pin H. Or if it were a number, pin 8.

Maybe its not pin 10, but its the yellow wire on the left of the plug (see in the pics) Does the yellow wire in the middle is the one that I need to bypass?

In the picture I attached, at the far left, is the circuit you are describing. It is only showing one yellow wire at fuse block terminal B4, that goes to DIM terminal H. That is the circuit you run a separate wire on. You should gain the switch backlighting back, and if you did your diagnosis correctly, it will not blow the fuse.

I think... I understand... And to make sure before I will make another mistake...
Pin H (in DIM plug) should be connect to pin B4 in the fuse box?
Pin C in (DIM plug) (Middle of blue plug in DIM plug) should be connect to pin A7 (or A8) in the fuse box?
And I can bypass the 2 yellow wires to avoid any short?

Pin C has nothing to do with it. Pin H simply goes to B4 at the fuse block.
