I had this happen to my 00 focus. Turns out there was a wire off inside the alternator witch was an easy 60$ fix for my mechanic......Going good for 2 yrs since.
You could also have lost the ground from the battery to the body of the car, this is in addition to the motor ground, due to the rubber motor mounts isolating the main ground (negative).

If you look to the left side of steering column, you will see the quarter holder and a flat looking plate- if you push in on the top of plate it will brighten the dash lightsand by pressing the bottom of it : it will dim the dash lights. The bad thing I have found is that you have to bighten or dim them every time you turn the lights off and back on. should do this while setting still as it is akward to doing while driving.
