OK, so I’m embarrassed to admit I’ve completely forgotten how to adjust the lighting level of the instrument cluster 🙈; all reminders most welcome.  
😂

Sunglasses 😎

I have yet to find how to do it on the Yeti let alone forget how, it appears to be a fixed lighting level from the LED backlit cluster.

 

On all previous vehicles it was a rotary adjuster beside the identical one for headlight aim, tucked up under the RH dash panel beside the steering column, on the Yeti it only has the headlight aim control and its impossible to see and also very hard to find by feel and only having vision from one eye I am very very good at working by feel and they could not have made that control harder to see, find and use if they had tried.

On a Yeti, the dashboard dimmer is a rotary dial next to the headlight range dial. It's optional so probably not fitted to your vehicle...

Should be pretty easy to retrofit, it's just three wires and I don't think it needs coding:

 

 

 

Je t'aime!!!! 😍

 

That said I am used to the brightness now, I'm not sure that my RH lower dash panel has the cut out for the switch or the connector, I worked intimately with those parts when removing and refitting the dash after the airbag deployments, I would have noticed a blanking plate and connector and searched for a dimmer straight away, its where I had expected a dimmer to be fitted.

It certainly does. It's currently got the headlight range dial fitted

That would need to be popped out and replaced by the headlight range and backlight brightness version. I'm not sure if you'd need to replace the connector too or not.

Brilliant; found and done!👍🏻

OK I understand now, its a dual switch, perhaps the ones on my Octavias were also, I had assumed they were seperate switches.

 

I have just looked in the car and the cut out looks big enough for a dual switch 👍

 

From the diagram I should be looking for a connector with 4 pins hopefully populated with 8 wires, is that correct?

Other way round...

 

It should be an 8 pin connector and it'll have either 5 or 8 wires.

 

 

I say that as the headlight range dial uses 3, the LED backlighting use 2 so I'd expect 5 to be populated.

 

The final 3 would be the backlight brightness dial but as Skoda don't tend to add unused wires, you might find these are missing
