Well I see you got the correct answer on another Forum.

Good luck.

Was hoping it wouldn't be this hard for a simple dimmer switch.
Still looking for the easiest solution.
Thanks

Will this work with the CompassConnect system ?

Hey Peter,

Did you ever get an answer? I want one but haven't heard anyone use one on a Compass Connect!

Hey Peter,

It seemed like more trouble then it was worth doing for now anyway.

But I was thinking of maybe just installing a switch on the two lights closes to the couch and turn them off manually....

just looking into it now.

Well, I have been researching this for weeks, here is what I believe to know

I tried the RF Dimmer - WS-01DC, it's a low side dimmer meaning you need access to the ground wire for the lights, a common ground at the controller won't work

Some Compass Connect systems have the light ground wire at the controller unit as noted by another poster where it worked for him, our 2022 2500RL does not have the light ground available so the WS-01DC doesn't work.

Meaning, to dim the lights I need a high side dimmer and the knob style dimmer should work. I was hoping for something a bit newer than 1950'ish

There are other high side dimmers that should work as well, some are quite spendy, north of $80 each, not going to work for me

I'm still on the hunt for a solution
