Default Dial lights - illumination control module?

Hi all

Another little niggle - the dial lights in the dash of of my sovereign are on all the time as soon as the ignition is engaged. I can't turn them off at all - I've clicked the dimmer on the steering column but it's had no effect. I've read that it may be a lighting control module issue?

Could anyone tell me where exactly this module is and how to remove/replace?

Also, when driving I've noticed a few clicks from around the steering column - clicks that sound very much like the one from the j gate when you press the brake. Anyone know what this might be?

Many thanks!

The light control module for the dash lights is fitted under the stering column shroud, at the side, on the side facing the passenger seat. It is a small black plastic box, about the size of a matchbox or slightly smaller and is a known fail item. It may well be held in place with a nylon tie. There is coverage of this on Jaglovers in a thread by jim butterworth if it helps.
