dykz34 Posted November 29, 2007 Report Share Posted November 29, 2007 Do you know what would cause a 92 GP LCD DIC to turn off when the headlights are turned on? It works fine and is bright when the headlights are off, but when it tries to dim, it turns the display off completely. Would not having a stereo installed affect this? It might tapped into the dimmer circuit via that is my only thought... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psych0matt Posted November 29, 2007 Report Share Posted November 29, 2007 if your DIC dimmer wire is tapped into the stereo dimmer wire, and you don't have your stereo in currently, it might. I'd just plug the stereo in quickly and try it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dykz34 Posted November 29, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 29, 2007 Since there is no stereo in the car, is there a way I could trip it to just check that it still works? Does that circuit need to be grounded to dim or is the voltage dropped across it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psych0matt Posted November 29, 2007 Report Share Posted November 29, 2007 I think the voltage drop determines the dimming. You cant just grab the stereo and plug it in for a minute to check? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, I can't. The stereo is installed in a different car. I would have to swap it out, mess with the harness, etc, etc. I'll mess with it today.
