In this video, we dive into 12-volt DC dimming circuits and explore why two-way dimmers don’t work as expected. We’ll walk through the wiring setup for a basic dimmer, covering the connection from the 12-volt fuse block to the light circuit. You’ll learn why adding multiple dimmers in a circuit causes issues like flickering and inconsistent dimming.
