1)Fuse blown (Consult owner's manual) 2)open circuit (broken wire somewhere within the entire path, from tail light to battery!) 3)Faulty Lamp Failure Sensor (e.g., the little yellow box behind the carpeting in the driver's side of the trunk of my 1991 Camry) It's tough...just repaired the box (fixed brake lights); everything was fine, until the next day...now the taillights, dash lights are out, as the fuse keeps blowing. MAY be related, but everything worked fine (after the first repair) for 24 hours... Electrical stuff CAN be tough...if you're lucky, it may be simple. Good luck. FACE

well u could have 1 of 3 problems.. 1, u blew a fuse so check all fuses. 2, your light switch has gone bad, this is the switch you turn to turn on dash an headlights located on the left side of the dash, or 3, the wiring to the plug on the vehicle has gone bad.. your best bet is to go to a junkyard an cut the plug off a car identical or similar to your car, splice the wire, and wire in the new plug. Good Luck ;)

Dash lights normally go out when you have a blown fuse. Try changing bulbs. After replacing bulbs if the problem consist change fuse. If neither work then you may have electrical problems.
