Hi o have an 2001 monte carlo and i notice before taking a night trip out that my dimmer switch wont work meaning with i twist it up it wont brighten up and also that my rear lights outside my care isnt working .I really need to get this problem fixed so that i can drive at night and wont get pulled over cause its not working at all. I checked fuses and all seem well . PLz Help

 

i have the same problem i notesed it after i replaced my master window switch. i also had to replace my relay in the fuse box. dose any1 have any clue on how to fix this?

 

Maybe the bulbs are burnt out?

 

the bulbs arent burnt out cause i have auto start on my car and they blink on and off as the car is started without the keys however soon as i put the keys in the dimmer goes all the way down n the back lights dont work.. i was thinking about replacing the rely but i was waiting on replys. please someone help i know someone had this problem n fixed it

 

maybe a fuse or something idk i just lookin for a solution

 

Does your hazard switch work?

 

yea and so does my turn signals its jus soo wierd the back lights dont work and the dimmer =the dash and everythang else that with that **** is turn all the way down and when i turn it up da light doesnt increase but when i click it over the interior lights cut on but the dimmer still works.

 

had a simular problem with my truck and monty replaced the master switch and relay for the lights. and it cured the problem. what i mean i replaced the relay for the head lights didnt really fix it. till i replaced the master switch. for gigles i also replaced the break peadel switch at the same time. fixed the problem

 

Did you want to replace the dimmer switch?

Found this just now: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/2000-...Q5fAccessories

 

for some stange reason the dimmer switch came with the master head light switch. so i consider that to be a bonus i got it from the dealer and it was 80 dallers. the sales guy said the reason why they sell both as one unit is because it is a kit. but he said when i replaced the one on my monty the dimmer switch gets its current from the head light switch? thats what he said and it cured mt head light problem and that was more than my silverado switch. because of the fog light switch and head lights are a combo
