For the past few days, I have been trying to figure out why my dash lights won't come on. Just got all new bulb sockets, all new bulbs, and a new circuit board as well as a new headlight switch. There is a 2 amp fuse in the correct spot of the fuse block. Testing the orange connector that goes into the back of the dash, there is 12v coming out. With the headlight switch half pulled and the car in ACC mode, the light to indicate that the switch has been pulled is super bright, however, the lights behind the gauges barely light. Then once I pull the headlight switch all the way out, they just completely shut off. Any ideas what it could be. Dimmer switch is all the way to the left in the pictures as well. Pictures are attached.
