I don't have the schematics, or the resources, or the patience to figure out the rest of the problem, thats what the techs at customer service are for. I can tell them, hey look my dimmer doesnt work from 0-24 deg c, but it works from 24-35 deg c. Then they can get their digital multimeters out and their oscilliscopes and stuff and tell me that the tri-molecular discombobulater is broken and its going to cost 8000 dollars to fix. Oh wait, thats my local dodge dealer. The empeg guys will tell me its just a temp sensative capacitor and that they are gonna fix it for free cause its under warrantee and even if it wasnt they would fix it for free cause they are cool like that. I am going to bed!

Night Acura, and thanks for further reinforcing my test results. Please, I beg all of you, don't preheat your EMPEGS so that your dimmers will work, just wait for the tech fix!!!!
