Hi,
Yeah there were 2 wires trapped under the centre console that'd worn bare n were shorting that circuit, just underneath the ashtray. So when I fitted a new dimmer switch as soon as I turned the key it fried that one too. Replaced worn wires, fitted new dimmer switch, bingo.
Oh, and I was quoted at best £10 and at worst £65 for 2nd-hand switches from different scrappers, and they're only £29 brand new from BMW. £65! Gotta keep an eye out haven't you
