    turn the dimmer all the way around? Which way? Full brightness or full dim? If its popping fuses at full brightness you have an excessive current draw somewhere which is popping the fuse. Could be short to ground. First thing i would do is check all the bulbs and check for any burned traces on back of the gauge cluster.
