frey1691 Posted December 16, 2011 Report Share Posted December 16, 2011 So I was trying to figure out why my dash lights won't come on and I was trying to see if there was something wrong with the dimmer. Well in the process of getting it out of my dash me, zach, master of mechanics(jk btw).... Broke it:( so if anyone has an extra and would like to give me a price I'm willing to see what I can do also if there is a way to just bypass the thing that would work too Quote Link to comment
KC Phirus Posted December 16, 2011 Report Share Posted December 16, 2011 Damn dude you're right down the road. Is it the wheel type or buttons? Wheel is just a potentiometer, should have two wires, stickem together. Don't know about the switch. Thought this was in the 620 section at first. I got an extra 620 one I'm sure could be rigged up.

frey1691 Posted December 17, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 17, 2011 For a 720? How much you want for it Quote Link to comment
KC Phirus Posted December 17, 2011 Report Share Posted December 17, 2011 For a 720? How much you want for it 620, sorry, confusing myself. Late night post Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted December 17, 2011 Report Share Posted December 17, 2011 This should be in Datsun Parts Wanted. The 720 dimmer switch is not like the old potentiometer type but are all now solid state. Check if your tail lights are working. If they are then it's not likely the dimmer switch. .

Looks like a potentiometer with way too much Bull attached to it K.I.S.S. Quote Link to comment
