Re: dash lights wont turn on..help

the one thing that all the dashlights have in common is the dimmer switch so I would start there. Same thing just happened on my 94 civic, all I did was follow the helms procedure and test for battery voltage on the middle wire with the key to acc(maybe diff wire on your car, not sure) and it had it then once I put the dimmer back in everything worked again. very weird, I assume something just came loose in the dimmer because the wiring connection was fine.
