Dash panel lights go on after start 850 1995

I opened one up a few years back after I pulled it out. I wasn't expecting something that long, the rheostat for my kitchen light is just a small round thingy. A computer board??? How many diodes? How many transistors? The engineer should have been shot!

What was amazing about my now defunct one is that it came on at full power, stayed there for 30-60 seconds and then dimmed until out. After turning the key off and on a few times, it didn't light up the dash anymore. It worked fine at night.

The slight seat movement was a real puzzle, as those two are not related.
