all my dash lights dont light up, apart from the ones which work of the ignition, this also includes the little computer thing!

surely its not all the bulbs?
could it be the light switch?

There isn't a relevant fuse that doesn't affect other things.
Pull out the lamp holder from the rear ashtray, turn on the lights, and earth the brown/white wire with the aid of a piece of wire.
Does this make all the dash light up?
