No dash lights
 

I just bought a 98 sentra. No dash lights but all fuses and relays are good. Anybody had this problem before. The car has 114000 miles and seems to be in pretty good shape. I picked it up in an effort to beat the man at the gas pump. this is my second sentra.

RE: No dash lights
 

Me too! My '97 Sentra's dash lights and tail lights and front parking lamps just went out driving down the road the other day. There is not a marked spot on the fuse block diagram for dash lights, tail lights, or parking lights. All of the fuses in the block are fine. Someone suggested a bad dimmer switch.... but would that affect tail/parking lamps as well? I ask because I don't know. HELP ME PLEASE! This vehicle is my only source of transportation at this time and not being able to drive it at night is a real bitch! Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanx, M.

I had that same problem with the dash lights so I went to my local salvage yard and got a dimmer switch from a 96 sentra and I got lights now however I do not have dome lights so I got to try to fix that. As far as the exterior lights you might want to look at the swith on the colum cause I took mine apart and sprayed some contact cleaner and the lights flickered a little bit but didn't mess them up.

your dash lights are probably not working because of a bad dimmer switch and for all your parking lights going out i would deffinitly double check all your fuses cause that could be it you have to check them with a ohm meter or pull each one out and look if you dont know wich one is wich, if there all good then i would check your light switch on the column. let me know
