My panles light will not work. They do not dim or turn on. This effects the interior loghts (they will not turn on) my switch to dim the light will not turn off the head lights. They stay on all the time. ( I do not have day light lights). When I try to switch to high beams they come on then turn off. What is my problem?

Hi iyaoyas_ao,

Thank you for the donation.

The symptoms described indicates a likely fault with the light switch. Would you be able to perform testings with a test lamp or DVOM?

Sorry for the delay in replying. I have been having troube with my connections and keeps getting disconnected.

Turn on the park lights and at the light switch, use a test lamp to ground the Light Green/Red wire and if the park lights and panel lights comes on, the light switch is bad.
