Default instrument panel, a/c control, etc. not lighting up

I checked the fuses and they weren't blown. Also, on the gauge cluster, when I turn the key to on position when the headlights are off, the light on clock glows on, but when I turn the headlights off, the light goes off. Can anyone think of what the problem might be? thanks.

Try replacing the control boxes on driver side kick panel. One is black, one is white. Controls lighting and windshield wipers and things like that. Whatever.
Might work, might not.

it is plugged in, i even tried with another dimmer switch and it still didn't work. I also tried with a different headlight/turning signal switch and that didn't work either.

your car is doing what mine is find the power wire to lights and bridge them off the pop lights button cause when u turn parking lights on dash lights will get power... turn lights on dash lights will still have power cause of the pop up button lights up easy fix thats what i did fuck looking for prob ****** rig it up if i am correct the wire should be in the middle slot and be Red/green stripe or vise versa...
