I don't want to ask a stupid question, but it wouldn't be the first time that it was the problem and the person didn't think about it.

But have you checked your dimmer switch? maybe its not up all the way

Wait, you're saying you're turning on your cluster lights during the day and it's dim? That's expected...the cluster lights will only really appear once there's virtually no light outside.
