Replacing dashboard dimmer switch

dimmer Switch
Just like your typical dimmer switch at home inside there is a variable resistor. the one main reason why your dash lights are low is because your resistor is pooched. The resistor controls how much voltage goes through...lower the resistance brighter the bulb higher resistance lower the bulb. Yes it is possible to get it fixed....just replace the switch

I got the dimmer switch out.
sbr711, can you get a schematic diagram from the HMA site?
I'ld like to test it outside the car before I plunk $90 for a new switch. I have tools, I can rig up something to test it, I just need to know the pinout.
There is voltage to the harness, I checked.

I'll reply to my own thread with what I've got so far:
1- I purchased a new rheostat online from Hyundai Parts Wholesale, http://www.partswebsite.com/hyundaipartswholesale/
Part number is 949502C000, about $46 with shipping. Price was $86 at dealer here in Calgary, Canada.
2- I found the schematic, at this link:

It's all starting to make sense now. I'll update when I receive the part and hopefully fix this problem.
Cheers.
