I had the same problem with my 01 Monte. I went to school for auto body, i am very smart, and I couldn't figure it out. I took things apart, have the factory manual etc. One holiday I was going home from my sisters house and my wife said that my rear lights were out. For months they were off and it made sense. People were allways flashing me with high beams driving next to me making gestures and I thought they were trying to F@#K with me but all along they were trying to tell me this. DUH!
LOng story short there is a fuse on the passenger side.. when you open the passenger door, there is a fuse panel. Its the 4 th fuse more than likely, starting from the bottom going up, but check those fuses, I know I did before for a fact but, it was infact blown when I carefully inspected it later.. it was a very small burn, but that was it. For some reason the passenger fuses come loose due to vibrations. Good luck Man.

How do you make the dashbooard lights to come on?
Usually, there is a dimmer switch within the car to make the dashboard lights come on. In most cars, the switch located within the dashboard. If you are having a problem with your lights, a fuse can possibly be blown. Be sure to check the fuse box to rule out any issues.

Bad dash light, or dimmer fuse. Or a bad dimmer switch itself
When the dashboard lights fail on the 2000 Vauxhall Vectra and all the fuses appear ok what is the problem and if its the lightbulb how do you get at it to change it?
the most common problem with this is that the customer has the dimmer turned down (located below the headlight switch)

Is there a relay for the instrument cluster when you turn your healights on you lose your dashboard lights?
I have the same problem with mine. What I have been able to learn is that it is possibly related to a dimmer switch located just under the dashboard with the roller-wheel and/or the "flash-to-pass" dimmer switch located on the steering column. You can try replacing the one on the steering column to see if that fixes the problem. If it is the dimmer switch under the dash, you will have to strip one out of a used vehicle somewhere or order it directly from Ford as it is a manufacturer's part only.

Check your dimmer switch under the dash first.

The "trip odometer" on the dashboard doubles as a dimmer. So, the solution to no lights inside the Toyota Sienna is to turn the trip odometer up to turn the lights back on.

Probably because the dimmer switch is turned off. Turn the dimmer switch up and see if the dashlights and radio illumination lamps come on.
Why don't the headlights work on your 1995 ford ranger?
AnswerIf the lights work on the flash to pass but do not work otherwise either the switch is bad or the dimmer switch is bad. I just am working on a 1995 Ranger and found the dimmer switch to be bad. I checked the headlight switch and that was good so I found the dimmer switch to be the problem. I jumped the wires after unplugging the dimmer switch and lights come on. Replace the headlight dimmer switch and good to go! Hope this helps.

it is below the headlight/dimmer knob, on the back of the dashboard. it is a pain to get to, requiring you to pretty much tear the dashboard out to get behind it
