Default Dash/radio lights off when Headlights on

Ok so when I turn on my headlights my dash/radio lights turn off and my mileage goes dim. I checked the fuses and ip dimmer, and both stg whl cntrl were blown. I replaced those and ip dimmer keeps on blowing..

Any ideas? How would I test the dimmer switch itself??

Did you happen to replace the IP dimmer or check the radio wireing?
