I had the same problem, there are two options.
1. Go to U pull it off Va Beach Blvd and get the dimmer switch from a 92-00 civic. Any model dimmer from those years will work.
It should look something like this...

pull it apart...

then all you have to do is switch the knobs and it should work fine, plug and play.

2. if you want to do some soldering... volt check the board to find out wear the current loss is.
I bought this...

that was where the problem was...

So I desoldered this side of the board and resoldered the diode...

put it back together and it worked like new =)

You need to host your pics on a website, linking from your hard drive won't work since we don't have access....
