Already pressed and depresed the dimmer switch but still nothing. I got a out voltmeter to test for current and cant seem to get current from the ammeter tab on the light switch. Could the regulator be at fault?
You should be measuring power (voltage) not current (amps). (Your ammeter does that.)
Some people are telling you it's the switch. If there is no voltage at the ammeter terminal of the switch I don't see how they can determine that. The way some people trouble shoot is to start replacing parts willy-nilly. That can become very expensive and solve nothing. Since you have already gotten your voltmeter out, I can see you're not that way.
If you are not getting power to the switch go to the other end of that wire and see if it got disconnected. Make sure it doesn't have a break hidden under the insulation. Keep checking until you find the problem, then fix it.
