Clock brightness problem

[rj7630]

The clock lighting randomly changes from the full bright daylight mode to dim night mode. Doesn't make any difference if lights are on or off. The rest of the dash light work fine. It is just he clock. Any ideas on what to check?

I noticed this recently too. I yanked out the cig lighter and it seems better now. However, the clock didn't immediately get brighter so that was very odd. I was going to replace the lighter and see what happens.
