Hello, Newbie (to Forum) here, with my first question. My 2011 XL with only 106K miles is a great camper trailer hauler, but I have a problem seeing the instrument cluster— especially the tiny alpha-numeric information— not just because it’s all so small, but mainly because the lighting is so DIM… to the point of being virtually useless, day or night. So my question is, how can this be corrected? Settings? “Bulbs”, if indeed there ARE any? (I read somewhere that this dimming can be an early sign of the alternator going bad: true??). Thanks in advance for any helpful suggestions!
