Did you read owners manual about instrument panel lighting adjustments?

Dash lights will dim if you turn on the headlights such as during a rain storm. If that is your situation, I don’t think there is an option.

There’s a knob to turn the brightness up and down on the dashboard, to the left of the steering column, probably in front of your left knee. Turn them brighter.
