1995 Honda Civic LX 1.5L lights VIN: 1HGEG8652S
I found after looking for a while that it had poor ground in the switch, it was intermitant so it made it hard to find. By the time you had set up testing it would be at full brightness. Changed switch and seems ok now.

2002 Nissan Pathfinder SE 3.5L MIL Lamp on VIN: JN8DR09X22
thanks for the replies. I was overthinking this problem. The swirl solenoid was bad. Apparently resistance checks don't always tell you if a part is bad. Replaced the solenoid & it clicks loudly & allows vacuum to the swirl actuator like it should. Trouble codes: P1130.
