I just discovered this post and it is in deed quite baffling. I have had many electrical quandrys that have always been solved here. Trevor is quite amazing when it comes to all things electrical and has always given me sound guidance.
Coming to this thread as an outsider with an open mind, I am wondering about something that I did not see addressed. With all the discussion about dimming backlighting, turn signals, rheostats, etc., has anyone explored the circuit that controls the "BRIGHT" function at the end of the turn signal stalk?
I know that when the headlights are on, all instrumentation lighting (and switch function lighting) dim as they should. Pressing the bright button on the end of the turn signal stalk return them to full brightness (so that climate controls, radio, clock, etc.) can be easily seen when driving with the lights on during the daytime) How is this circuit wired and is it fed partially by some of the circuits previously mentioned? I've never seen a post about a problem with this feature, but then again I have never seen this problem. It definitely seems the turn signal stalk demands further scrutiny. The turn signal stalk and the diming function may be interacting with each other in some fashion
