No dash lights
Lost dash lights. Everything else as far as lights working fine (headlights, parking lights, running lights, HUD, tail lights, signals and hazards). Saw other posts which indicated it may possibly be the multifunction switch but all those symptoms indicated that in addition to loss of dash lights other lights were effected also. I checked the fuses and could not find a bad one (19-25-6). I also tried to put the twilight option on but that didn’t restore the dash lights. I also checked the dimmer switch position but it was fully turned up. Radio lights do work. Anyone have any suggestions on what I may be missing or has anyone had a similar problem which was fixed by replacing the multi-function switch (stalk)?

Maybe something happened with the UV backlight? Although I don't even know what that UV backlight is called, I know it's located on the sides of the cluster gauge. I've been trying to get mine replaced as well as the backlight is starting to dim out; I heard there's an LED replacement to it too. I wonder if anyone knows what the UV bulb's exact name is.

I had a similar issue and the rear lights weren’t working and I opened the passenger side fuse box in the foot well and started reseating fuses and pressing on the relays and mine issue cleared, just saying what worked for me.

That’s what I’m figuring it may be. The only reason I hesitate is everyone who describes this problem seems to have some other light issues going on, like no tail lights. I guess I’ll bite the bullet and go for the multifunction signal replacement. Thanks everyone for the imput.

I checked the fuses but I didn’t check to see if they had power going to them. Thanks for the suggestion. I’ll try that and I’ll check the grounds. These are great cars but electrical nightmares.
