A little complicated but here's the deal. most dash light dimmers are really a rheostat and by what you are describing, the coil portion of the rheostat is 'fried' but this will still allow the non-dimming portion of the coil to operate non-dimmed. the dome light part of this is actually another separate switch that is engaged once the max dash light adjustment is reached, it has little to do with the dimmer what-so-ever. This is at least a $200 (or more) repair from a good shop, could be even pricier at a dealership, not counting the dimmer itself.
Thank you very much

electrical wires some how may have gotten wet you may be retaining water, do you have a sunroof or does the car leak a little when it rains, check the next time or do a water test real good and let me know.

You will need to have a reputable mechanic do a diagnostic check on the car to determine the problem. This should pull up a code number in your car's computer and help point the mechanic and you in the direction of the malfunctioning part/s.
Just today, I had a diagnostic check done on mine for nearly $45.00. The mechanic was able to figure out the reason why my service engine light was staying on. I knew my car's radiator fans failed to run when car's engine was hot except when the A/C was running. I had changed out the sensors and was never able to get the light to go out or get the fans working. They were able to determine that the 25 amp fuse for the fans located under the hood was blown. After replacing it, the fans worked as they should, my car runs cooler and the engine service engine light is now out. Of course there are many possible reasons why the service engine light may come on including problems with the car's emissions. A reputable mechanic can solve your problem.

did you turn the dimmer switch all the way up?

this is a common problem and the dash cluster must be removed and sent out for repair, cost is about $175 to replace the LED (Light emitting diode) display that has burned out, this is a faxtory defect as far as this expert is concerned, it is not a fuse problem.
