Headlight Dimmer Switch for Nissan and Infiniti

Restore reliable lighting control with the Standard Ignition CBS-1036 headlight dimmer switch. This new 12-volt switch uses a bolt-on attachment, a black plastic finish, and a 3-cavity rectangular blade connector for a direct replacement on listed Nissan and INFINITI applications.

Built with main light, high beam, headlight, and turn signal functions in one assembly, the CBS-1036 is a practical OE-style replacement for vehicles that need consistent driver-side lighting control. It also includes indicator markings, a latching high beam operator, and a momentary high beam flasher for familiar factory operation.

Detailed Description

The Standard Ignition CBS-1036 is a headlight dimmer switch engineered for vehicles that use a 12-volt, bolt-on switch design with a 3-terminal blade connector layout. It serves as the control point for headlights, high beams, main lighting, and turn signal operation, helping restore normal driver input when the original switch becomes worn or inconsistent. This part cross-references Beck/Arnley 201-1900 for the same application.

Fits 2000-2006 Nissan Sentra, N/A; Fits 2002-2004 Nissan Frontier, N/A; Fits 2002-2004 Nissan Pickup, N/A; Fits 2002-2004 Nissan Xterra, N/A; Fits 1999-2002 INFINITI G20, N/A; Fits 2001 Nissan Pathfinder, N/A; Fits 1996-2000 Nissan Pathfinder, N/A; Fits 1997-1999 Nissan Maxima, N/A. For Nissan Sentra, Frontier, Pickup, Xterra, Pathfinder, Maxima, and INFINITI G20 applications, verify that the vehicle is not equipped with fog lights where noted in the fitment data.

What It Helps Fix

  • Intermittent or failed headlight switching
  • High beam operation that does not latch or flash correctly
  • Turn signal control issues at the steering column switch
  • Dimmer switch wear that causes inconsistent lighting response
  • Factory switch replacement needs on listed Nissan and INFINITI models

Installation Notes and Tips

Confirm connector style, cavity count, and mounting method before installation. This CBS-1036 uses a female rectangular blade connector and bolt-on attachment, so the replacement should match the original electrical and physical layout. Fitment notes are important: several listed applications are not compatible with vehicles equipped with fog lights, and the 2001 Nissan Pathfinder requires a configuration without fog lights and without automatic headlights.

Quality Assurance

Standard Ignition supplies this part as a new replacement switch built for the listed vehicle applications. The design follows the specified connector, voltage, and control-function requirements for direct service use.
