I was driving my car yesterday and went to use the left blinker. Inside on the dash the indicator to the left wouldnt light up. However, the signal was flashing on the outside of the car. I went to the right and it worked fine on the cluster and outside of car. I then got curious and messed with the dimmer wheel and I lost all lights in the cluster when I moved it. Had to mess with it and get a sweet spot and all the lights came back on.
Started the car up today and now everything works perfectly okay. Where should I start? I have no idea but it seems really weird.

Burnt out blinker lite in your cluster and your dimmer switch is broken. The dimmers break often easy fix.

Today in the morning everything worked fine. The left light lit up on the cluster and the dimmer was ok also...
