check your fuses first
on my page, I have a listing of what each fuse controls
find the one that has dash/instrument lighting and then see if the other functions of that fuse are working
if not, then change the fuse and it should be fine

My guess is that you've got an aftermarket head unit in there, right?
Check behind the head unit for a loose wire. I think it's red w/ yellow stripe. that's your illuminuation wire. if that's shorting out against the frame of the car, it'll cause the fuse to blow.

I believe it's the 3rd 10 from the top
it's listed as Tail, clearance, licence, side marker, illumination; sorry I thought it said something different when I first posted
