Dash Lights Quit Working - Help
 
So I just got my temperature gauge working and then discovered my instrument lights quit working.

While re assembling the dash I had to remove the light switch knob to install the gauge cluster. In attempting to do so, I noticed that the release button was having trouble releasing the knob from the dash. I finally got it and put everything back together.

Later on I went for a drive and realized I forgot to plug the light switch back in on the back side of the dash. When I did plug it back in, that is when I realized I no longer had dash lights.

All other lights work fine and all fuses are good.

Thoughts?

Problem Solved!

I removed the light switch harness from the back of the light switch and realized that when I plugged it in previously, I bent over the spade that runs the dash lights. My bad, it was a hasty connection in a parking lot. It is all good now.
