I have the vehicle listed above LE model. Dashboard, controller panel lights not working. It was dim for some time and now it completely went out. I have had this kind of issue before when the lights would go dim but never goes out. If anyone knows please help. Thank you.

Hello,

There are three fuses that run the lighting system. (check the dome light fuse first 7.5 amp) For the instrument cluster that I would check first. here is a guide top help you get started:

Check out the cluster wiring diagrams so you can see how the systems works and the fuse panel definitions as well.

Check out the diagrams (below).

Please run this test and get back to us.

Check the dash light dimmer switch, with the lights coming on for a while then getting dim. My first thought would be in the dash control dimmer switch.
