Try pressing and holding the dimmer "switch" - that should drive the dash lights to max output.

Not sure if this is also connected to your issue.....My gas gauge is dim even if the headlights are off. When I turn on the headlights, everything goes dim and the gas gauge is darker than the rest.....Are they connected to this thread's issue?

dealership will charge you $96 and up just to see if they can point the problem out. this is a electrical issue not mechanical. i recommand you go to a Audio and Video shop, they specialize in electronics and they should be able to fix it for $50 or even less.
