Default dash / cluster lighting wiring. (search not working)

ok correct me if i am wrong here but...

the light switch feeds power to the dimmer and the dimmer to the rest of the dash?

if so one of the pins on the plugs for the cluster must be switched positive when lights are on?

there is a fuse for the cluster lights and no relay?

i am trying to find why there's no lights in the cluster, did obvious check fuse, change dimmer on cluster check bulbs in cluster.

the thing i cant figure out is there's no power going to the cluster when the lights are turned on. the rest of the dash lights up.
so is there a relay between switch and cluster? or a bad switch/dead line to cluster?

that certainly sounds like a switch issue to me... did you check for voltage at the fuse?

that's the next step.

so i am not crazy at assume there would be a pin on the plug that would be switched positive to the cluster?

funny part is all the other lights work

and the fuses are all good, i spent some time in the cold checking them tonight.
