you need a lock plate depresser to depress the plate to get the snap ring off, then you take 3 phillips scews out to get the turn signal cams outa the way, you should be able to pull it up and turn it with the wires attached, there should be a couple of torxs screws below that to loosen the rest of it

Lock plate depressor? Lol

The dimmer switch is on the lower column under the dash, you might not need to go further in the column, check it out first.

This will show you how to take the column apart:

Like said, take the panel under the column off, and you should be able to reach it from there. Sounds like it just needs to be adjusted a little.
