    Control panel in 231RK

    I am looking at putting in a dimmer switch on my internal lights. How do you get the panel off? Would I have to remove the radio to get to some bolts on the back?

    There are lots of posts here in the forum regarding dimmers. Especially fun if you have One Connect control for the lights. Suggest a search.

    First, you'll need to know if you have Compass Connect (aka One Control) or not. If you do, the control panel (what you see) is connected by CANBUS to a controller (hidden somewhere).

    The dimmer will be wired into the circuit at the controller.

    If you do not have Compass Connect, the dimmer can be placed in the control panel (modified with a 3D printed part).

    Hope this helps.

    Everyone is not answering my questions. I know the dimmer, I know where I want to place it. I want to know how to remove the panel. We have nothing fancy. Just switches and buttons. No connectivity at all.

    Sorry that we've not answered your question. I presume you mean the switch panel that is visible and that you touch to turn lights on and off.

    I believe the answer lies in one of the videos that is linked in the last thread linked above...
