Try it more, if you haven't worn the skin off your fingers you haven't twiddled it enough. If you take the pod out to do LED bulbs and line the light pipes you can bridge across it so you've always got full brightness. I've never seen any need to turn down the brightness on a 123. -Curt On

LED bulbs are a great upgrade for a 123. While you've got the dash pod out line the light pipes with mylar or aluminum foil. Worst thing about the LEDs is that they only go one way so you might have to pull the dash pod again and flip 'em around. Don't fall for the xenon bulbs, they'll melt th

Lighting rheostat is one of the most common failures you’ll ever find on a w123. The wiper on the rheostat sits in one place for decades and the contact corrodes. Give it a twist or two and all is well. Sometimes they will fail so bad they’ll have a dead spot, but that just means you have to tur
