I had an 88 nissan Sentra and I didn't have any dash lights for about 3 weeks and I called the dealer and they said that it could be the dimmer switch. so, I went to the junkyard that day and picked up one and put it in and I got my illumination back. Also it could be a bad wire. Irfan Rahim irfman2000@yahoo.com 2006 Blue Nissan Sentra SE-R Spec V Former owner of a silver 2000 Contour SE Sport ATX
