Yeah, others have reported success by doing exactly what you did. I tried that . . . but to no avail. I think the reason these get this way in the first place is because they don't get much use at all. I mean, honestly, how often do you adjust the brightness of the dash lights . . . especially when they are already dim on high. Unfotunately I just wasn't getting any response from mine . . . and after cleaning it I can see why.
