Warm up the car. Turn heat on to max, if warm air comes out, you may have a broken water pump.
If hot air comes out, you may have a thermostat ($12) stuck on closed.
As for the lights issue, are you sure the dimmer switch is not set to off. Check that first.
If you want a temp fix, with max light on the instrument panel, this thread might help you.
