B&C Specialty Products has some (they're at bandc.biz) but they're not
PMA. If you find one you can use I'd love to hear about it - mine
doesn't work all that well either.

Thanks, but, I think the owner wants something more like the original. I
tried the P/N 0144 panel dimmer from Aircraft Spruce. It has no OFF position.
It goes from dim to bright and dim isn't that dim.

There seems to be a lot of Rheostats out there. Just try doing a Google
search on Rheostats for Certified aircraft. There seems to be an STCd rheostat
for Cessnas. I'm still looking..

Gary.....From the A/C Spruce description....
"All necessary accessories are provided, including pre-fabricated wiring
harness assembly and/or mating D-subminiature connector plug; control
potentiometer with On/Off switch. "
The ON/OFF switch should be built into the control potentiometer..... it
should fit in the existing hole, and use the Grumman knob.... Is this not
correct?
As far as dimness goes... what rating device did you try? The lowest seems
to be 7.2 Amps, and I think the Grumman is only about 2 to 4 Amps. Did you
try a heavy duty parallel resistor to put some extra load on the device?
... one of 4 to 5 ohms and 40 watts would do... I know this sort of sucks,
but look at the big, ugly resistor behind the ELT...:
