That's the first thing I'd try. I'm guessing that it's a bad connection but checking the dimmer is easy and no tools required.

If it's not in the dimmer, my next step would be checking all the electrical connections. The FSM (see link in my sig) will have wiring diagrams and physical locations of connectors. In many cases, just unplugging the connectors and plugging them back in will clean the contacts.
