dashboard lighting not working dashboard lighting not working

Just sick of all the issues with this vehicle. Water coming in from everywhere, interior lights on and off, thumping from somewhere under carriage.

dashboard liights flicker when pressing on gas pedal often

Who wants to drive a car when the dashboard is flicking. More noticeably when driving at night. And can be scary not knowing what might happen on the road by yourself.

problem #1

Sep 152008

HHR LT2 2.4L I4

  • Automatic transmission
  • 41,344 miles

This has happened a few times already, but makes the car very dangerous to drive at night. The parking lamps, tail lamps, and the dash illumination, including the window and lock backlighting and the white LED above the rearview mirror will turn off while I'm driving. The instrument cluster will stay lit but will not respond to the dimmer. Turning on the headlights manually with the switch will not fix the problem either. The headlights will stay lit as normal, but the rest will not light up. I checked for a bad fuse, but the parking lamps and tail lamps light properly with the keyless entry. The problem will go away after two days or so while I'm driving with the automatic headlamps on. Go figure that this problem had to show up right after the car is out of warranty. I've had this car for less than a year now and I'm starting to hate the fact that I'm having these kinds of problems this early in the game.
