Need help please!

Just today I noticed that the my gauge blue backligh is not staying on and just flickering every second or so.And also the little wheel that controls the intensity is not working as well.When i roll it up or down nothing happens. The only thing I have done recently is add a kinetik battery in the rear and did the big three.Anyone knows of any solutions or reasons why this would happen?I really liked the blue light and the way i could switch from orange to blue but now thats not working.
Thanks in advance.

The Switch is most likely shot. It's a rheostat type; meaning it's an adjustable resister and they can wear out and the flickering is a good indicator...That would be my best guess.

Battery in the rear: Where did you route the wires, what did you have apart or disturb? I'd start by looking there.

Is it possible to repair/replace the switch at all?

And when I installed the battery I just used the cables that were connected to amp and simply connected them to the rear battery and then just added 2 short cables from rear battery to amp.I didn't take anything apart really but I also installed and a different head unit to so I don't know if something happen while I did that maybe.

Head unit back lighting is connected to the dash light dimmer circuit. Might be the source of your problem.

Thanks for the reply bud I managed to find the source of the problem and it exactly what you pointed out. The ilumination wire
was touching another wire so I put heat shrink on those wires and covered them up and now everything is working great.
Thanks to everyone that tryed to help much apreciated.
