The body control module (BCM) receives a variable voltage signal from the instrument panel (I/P) dimmer switch requesting to illuminate the instrument panel illumination lamps to a desired intensity. When this occurs, the BCM directly sends a pulse width modulated (PWM) voltage based on the I/P dimmer switch position through the instrument panel lamps dimming control circuit to the instrument panel illumination lamps.
