what electronics have you installed or touched recently? I going to bet you have a popped fuse, I have popped them a trillion times and the entire interior was out even the radio wouldnt work..... so check the fuses in the engine bay and the interior fuse pannels if you havent already

Hey I actually had a similar thing happen to me when I worked on my gauges. Aside from the fuses I would check the bulbs in the cluster. I had loosened a bulb in the back by accident and I couldn't see anything either. Hope that helps.

I had this problem in my '91 Chevy Lumina and it wasn't a fuse, a circuit board, or a bulb... there was a short in the wires running from the board back to where ever it was it was running. I eneded up just beating the dash while I was driving to get the lights to work ... lol, worked sometimes :D

sounds like you fryed the dimer switch somehow. so something else is causen the prob in order for t nlow your fuse. might wanna check all your electrical before replacent the switch cause they are about 45 bucks
