Already played around with the settings. The input wire going to the radio from the PACS module is +12vdc. It does not change state when the lights are turned off or on. That's why I am thinking the module is bad. I had contacted Pioneer tech support to try and find out if the input wire for the display dimming was voltage sensing or used current to drive the dimming circuit. They just said it required +12v. So I am thinking since everything else works, I may just put a 3-32vdc input solid state relay in and use the LED shift indicator wire as a source for the relay and toggle 12 volts to dim the radio. It would not give me an adjustable dim like the instruments but would toggle it... at least that's what I am thinking. (Or just get a new module!)
