interior lights dimmer switch broke ?

Hey, quick question. Tried to dim my interior lights for the first time the other day. Tried the little rotary switch to the right of the light switch with the little up an down arrows but the switch will not roll up or down.It kind of presses in like its spring loaded but will not rotate up or down.Is this the interior lights dimmer switch?The owners manual tell how to but I did not see a picture of the switch in the manual. Thanks

not broke, it is spring loaded, it doesn't actually rotate completely

you keep turning up or down depending on what you are trying to accomplish. It is only a partial spring loaded rotation, understand?

Mine doesnt push in. I do notice the spring buy you can only move it up or down but it doesnt go inward in order to move it up or down.

I don't think it spins. I think it's like the steering wheel controls, the seek button and I forget the other one, where they just press up or down.

Yea thanks for the feedback.Just what I thought.It is broken.It stays on full intensity no matter where you place it.Looks like I will have to have the dealer replace it.Funny how I have had it this long and never had the need to use it , That is until now that I have my abl lights hooked up and working & wanted to adjust them up and down playing with them. Thanks again for the input.hope the dealer does not give me any sh-t about the dash lights.Will be the first time back with any problems since I purchased it.
