Likely, check the fuse panel for blown fuses. if this doesnt solve the problem you likely have a short in the wiring under the dash. you also should check the bulbs for the interior lights, its also possible you have them switched to off, where they wont come on at all. check the one in the center of the vehicle to see if it has a switch, if it does make sure its set to DOOR, check the fuses and bulbs, then if these are all set and it doesnt work have a mechanic check your wiring.
Yes, under the dash
check the fuse on the wires on your radio, there is a separate wire for the display lights that should be wired to your dash lights
It's a wild, shot in the dark, but I'd guess the one marked 'RADIO'. However........the fuse for the courtesy lights can also kill a radio. At least it does on my '88 Celebrity Wagon.

Radio fuse
Check ALL fuses. If you want to take the fuse for the lights out, just start pulling fuses until it goes out. There may be more than just those lights on that fuse.

The fuse is blow, That one fuse powers the radio, cab lights and the mirror Check the fuse in Position #12, you will need a small flat head screwdriver to pop open the black fuse "cap". This fuse controls the "Memory" wire (yellow) to the radio, as well as the interior lights...
