check the fuses under your steering wheel to the left. You know where all the fuses are. Pull em out and see maybe one of the fuses are off. Thats wut i can think of. Or wut others said.

You have a short somewhere in your wires. Happened to my old car, was irratating the crap otta me. Finally found that one of my stereo wires had become exposed and was causing a short and blowing the interior light fuse! Good luck with yours.
