Ok, i was at a friends house tonight until around 9 p.m., needless to say it was dark out when i went to leave.

My instrument cluster (speedo, tach, gas gauge etc.), 3 gauge pod, A/C controls, Shifter assembly (P,R,D,N,1,2,3), Steering wheel controls, and some of my DIC have no lights.

The part of my DIC that works is the part with the pic of the car and the MPG etc. (the big section of it). But the lights around it dont work.

My headlights and fogs still work.

Help me please

It's gotta be a fuse, pull out that piece in the glove box and look at the diagram. I think there is a fuse labeled INT LAMP that you should be able to find.

I wouldn't think a bad ground would cause all those to go out.... definitely try fuses first.

Ey guys!!

Ordonez is saying he went out with friends,, it was dark when he finished, he couldn't see the lights on the dash.

Don't you think the first question should be:

How much did you drink?
Maybe he was sitting on the trunk. laugh

just kidding ordonez!

Dash lights are usually on the tail light fuse. This way when the fuse is blown you'll know you have no taillights if your dash lights are out.

That's a possibility; I had a friend who would do that sort of thing at our Friday night cruise. I cured him of it though; when he went in to buy coffee, he came out to find his car wouldn't start. Apparently someone had helped themselves to his fuse panel...

Depends on the car and the dimmer knob, but occassionally the knee (well in my case) will somehow flick that knob the other way and turn lights low or off.
