Also the little dimmer dial on the dash wont even move. Any ideas?

If it is working, the dimmer switch may be broken (stuck on off) or the wiring came out. "Always do the cheap and easy ones first." 1996 V6 ATX 96K miles

I dont even use it, dont know how it would break. But it is stuck in the high position unless it just doesnt matter where the dimmer wheel is.
