Dash lights don't work

[vzz1by]

When I turn the headlights on the dash lights do not come on.

I've checked all the fuses in the fuse box to the left of the dash and the ones in the electrical box.

 

Anyone have any other ideas??

 

HELP PLEASE

 

Thanks

My guess is either the head light/dash dimmer switch or the BCM.

Try the switch at a junk yard it would probably be cheaper. You might try playing with the dimmer, might just have a dead spot in it.

Body Control Module...

 

It would be my last guess, the only reason I put it up there is there aren't many things controlling those lights it just so happens to be one of them.

 

I had a very similar problem. It turned out to be the dimmer switch. Once you get the part it is a 5min. fix.

I know this may sound stupid, but I always try to check the obvious. Did you turn your dimmer dial all the way up?
