    Hey guys/gals i've got a 2001 360 spider. I was driving the car last night and i had no lights in my spedomoter and rpm gauge. the gas gauge was lit up same with the gear number on the instrumentation panel. I'm wondering if there's a dimmer switch somewhere? i looked but couldn't find anything?

    Look in your owners manual and it tells you how to dim or brighten the panel lights. Basically it's turn on the lights, use the LH and RH black buttons (below the switches on the LHS of the dash) to set the dimming function and cycle through the 10 presets.

    Tim- The strip lighting for the 360, 575, and F430 can be troublesome, so if fiddling does not fix it and you can find no loose connectors, FAI in Costa Mesa can repair it at a reasonable cost.
