Almost certainly a fuse.

your dimmer switch could be faulty. when I bought my civic, it came with indiglo guages and the wires were hacked into for the dimmer switch for power for the guages. After I took the guages out, my climate control and gauges wouldnt light up. It has to complete a circuit for everything to work, I soldered everything back together and I have lights again.

so basically, try a friends dimmer switch after you check all your fuses.
