Did you check the bulbs? Also, maybe the dimmer switch is bad.

Definitely sounds like a fuse.. did you check the ones under the hood also? Are your parking lights coming on?

sounds like a fuse. Get a meter and check them. Sometimes a screw or something metal will get into the cig lighter and blow the fuse as soon as you put it in.

theres nothing in the cig lighter. i check the fuses everwhere. the bulbs are fine. but maybe i should check the dimmer switch

Did you also check the interior fuses, specifically the one for dash lights?

Its most likely going to be your dimmer switch.

My dimmer switch went bad about 2 years back and caused all of my interior lights to not work.

You'll have to ground a certain wire on your dimmer switch harness, I'm not sure which one but I could check for you possibly when I get home tonight.

But definetally test your dimmer switch before you try grounding this wire, If this isn't the issue it could cause more problems.

If you have a haynes manual you should be able to trace down the wire and wire colors in the wiring diagrams in the back of the book.
