I own a 1988 740 turbo volvo that runs great, but the lights are a lil screwy. The head lights work but tue dash lihjts wont, when the dimmer switch is turned the dash lights turn on but the head lights turn off. I know it’s the problem with the rheostat, but I don’t know how to fix it. If I need to replace it or just rewire it, i checked all the fuses and they all work. Any info would be nice.
