I have a simple question I hope. On my 2001 S type 4.0 the dimmer rheostat for the dash lights will not vary the brightness beyond a dull glow that can basically only be seen in the garage. It should be simple to change but I can’t find anything in the manuals about how to get it out of the dash. I suspect it just pops out but before I do any damage does anyone have some ideas or tips about this? Thanks

 

Yep, it just pops out. There's a little clip at each end that grips the edge of the opening. See the third picture at this eBay listing (item # 252846733591) to see one of the clips:

Pry gently with a small screwdriver and the dimmer switch will come loose from the dash.

I'd suggest tying a piece of string to the wire harness to keep it from falling back inside the dash when disconnected.

 

Thank you very much. Got it out super easy and the ebay picture helped also. This forum always helps me out ,
