Gauges dont light up but warning lights and odometer works 01 camaro ss
Just like title says, my gauges dont light up but my warning lights and odometer do. I move the dimmer switch upand down and nothing. All fuses are good. What else should i check?

The power supply for the IP Dimmer Switch is fed through either the DLR Module or the Park Light Switch from fuse #5 (Tail Lights) in the IP Fuse Block. The output of the IP Dimmer Switch then supplies voltage to fuse #16 (IP Dimmer) to power the dash lights. Check both fuses with a continuity tester like WSSIX99 suggested and if they are good, check for power at terminal 44 of fuse #16 (IP Dimmer) in the IP Fuse Block. You may not have a full 12V reading depending on the position of the dimmer switch. In fact, you should be able to move the dimmer switch up and down and see the voltage change with any movement. This procedure will confirm if the dimmer switch is operating correctly. I've attached schematics for the dash light circuit that may help troubleshoot the problem.
