UPON PURCHASE ON 2/17/2007, THE DASH LIGHT DIMMER SWITCH WOULD NOT DIM THE DASH LIGHTS. THE DASH LIGHTS WERE MODIFIED BY THE MOTOR HOME MANUFACTURER AND THEREFORE THEY ARE RESPONSIBLE, THIS ACCORDING TO WORKHORSE THE CHASSIS MANUFACTURER. I FILED THIS DEFECT IN A LETTER TO THE BUSINESS I PURCHASED THE MOTOR HOME FROM AND ALSO THE MANUFACTURER ON FEBRUARY 21, 2007. I HAVE TAKEN THE MOTOR HOME IN TWICE TO FIX THIS DEFECT AND NEITHER TIME WAS THE PROBLEM RESOLVED.
