Yes it can be a fuse, the dash illumination and the tail lights are on the same fuse, check the fuse on the inside fuse panel at the left lower dash, the fuses are marked on the cover, look for the "tail" fuse and try replacing it, if that doesn't fix it let me know.

    I had the same problem and changed the "tail" fuse and checked all the other fuses but it did not work. Any other suggestions? I don't get anything on my dashboard. The only thing that works are the emergency lights that flash. Please help...

Dash lights won't work. Have already changed the headlight switch but still not working.

Check if the dashboard bulb is still okay, if so then change the fuse. you have to pull the dashboard to locate the bulb. all the best.

There are no dashboard or control panel lights. how do i change the bulbs?

the cover off the lights might just pop off, look for screws and sets first. hmm may not be bulbs could be a fuse under the dash usually on driver side, look for panel in dash, if your lucky they'll be a legend that tells you what fuse does what, usually dashboard and interior lights are on the same fuse, making me think that's the problem not the bulbs. One or to bulbs maybe, but all of em? gotta be fuse that's my final answer lol

Dashboard lights do not work. Fuses all ok.

You need to change the bulb, it is blown out.

Dashboard lights went out while braking

the dashboard will be need to be taken apart to change the bulb. A fuse alone won't fix it. Also, the day time running lights are not meant to go off. They are a standard safety feature.
