I’m working on wiring some rocker switches and can’t get them to dim. I tapped into the illumination circuit using the green (+) and green/white (-) wires for the power and ground (unused cig lighter light circuit) to the main/lower light in the switch, but dimming isn’t working. When I have it wired like this, none of the lights on that circuit dim that will normally dim (heated seat button lights, radio button lights, etc.)
Do I need to wire the illumination ground back to the white/red wire directly from the dimmer switch?

How my switch is currently wired:
#2 12v fused tapped from cig lighter circuit
#3 wired to signal for light bar relay
#6 wired to green illumination wire from cig light
#7 wired to green/white wire for cig lighter light
#8 grounded to body
Any wiring experts out there that can offer some advice?
