Unhappy strobelight

have been having issues with my dash lights at night time flickering off and on {strobe light} very irritating on my 2016 Tuscany XTE 36MQ .just received a call from freightliner and they said it was a house issue not chassis, was in the back light area of the dash display and was the responsibility of who ever made the dash - O GREAT - they said thor was aware of this situation and working on it as we speak? sounds kinda like a software issue to me. any one out there have the same issue or tweak? have to put a towel over my gauges at night to drive, boy is that dark THNXS TOM AND JOANNE

Does it do it when your parked or only when in motion?

My last RV did that. It would turn on and off when I hit bumps. I played with the wiring plugs in the back to make sure all were tight. still same issue. One day I dimmed the backlight a little and problem never came back as long as the dash lights were dimmed a little. If I turned them back up it would happen again.

That was a 2000 R-Vision 33'er.

My guess is that there is connector somewhere behind the dash that is not fully seated. Good luck, it will get straighten out somehow, however that type of thing can sure be annoying.
