The dashlights are connected to the taillight circuit with the same fuse so that when your tail lights go out, the dash lights will too and you will know so you won't ride around with no tail lights. Replace the fuse.
I did not find this to be a solution for my problem - fuses were not the issue. Following is my solution:
I had the lights on my dash and tail lights go out on my 1995 Grand Am 3.1 V6. After much investigation, it ended up being that the turn signal switch had gone bad. I got mine at Autozone - $79.99 for one with cruise, $69.99 for one without. SW860 for the non-cruise, SW859 for the cruise version. It is sometimes referred to as a multifunction switch - however, when I called and asked about that, it seemed as though the parts are NOT the same (MFS was much more expensive). Make sure you specify turn signal switch (that also controls the tail lights, headlights, etc).
In order to replace it, you need to remove the cover around the steering column - we couldn't get the lower part of the cover off and subsequently also had to pull the steering wheel (which also meant disabling the air bag), then remove the bad turn signal switch (which also controls the headlights, parking lights, tail lights, etc), pop in a new one, put everything back together (re-enabling the airbag) and then you can enjoy a life of dash lights and tail lights once again.

passenger side, under car, in-between oil pan and transmission. stuffed up there.
pain in the butt.
How can it be on the passenger's side when the transmission in on the driver's side?
I think they call that the "control module" or equvilent. Usually, if you ask for a wiper, turn signal or cruise module, you'll get the one that controls all three.

if its a 3.1 v6 it is under the trottle body behind the exhaust manifold
if it is a 2.3 single over head quad 4 4 cyl. it is at the end of the bottom radiator hose on the under side of the engine and the exhaust manifold needs to be removed first
AnswerIt is located within the water outlet, which is attached to the lower end of the top radiator hose. Answerif you have the four cylinder the thermostat should be at the water pump in the back of the eninge. look through the exast manifold at the back the 3rd hole or simply follow the radiator hose to the back of the eninge it should connect directly to the water pump.There could be several things causing a knock in the top of your engine, most likely is that you are not using premium fuel.
Depends on the engine if its diesel the answer should be right, if its petrol it could as well be a whole bunch of other stuff.

Turn signal flasher 1995 grand am?
It is located behind the fuse block on the driver's side. When you open the drivers door you can plainly see the fuse block. (marked "FUSES") Flasher is behind that. You have to get to it from unde the dash. Take out panels under steering wheel. If you get your head down by the brake pedal you can see it. When I changed mine, I took out the little bracket that holds it in and relocated it to a lower place. I clipped the flasher bracket onto the little access door closest to the emergency brake (on the panel that you have to take out). Luckily the wires were long enough to enable this, so if you have to change it again, it's alot easier.
