We just bought a second hand 1997 dodge caravan, and when driving it on our first night last night it appears that the dashboard lights don't work so we can't even see the speedometer. We cannot see where the problem even starts. Any suggestions? Please email us at smilepurty@aol.com, we're pulling our hair out!

Check the switch and make sure it is not turned all the way down, and then check the fuse box. Hopefully it is something simple like that

Most likely it is the dimmer switch just turned down to the off position.

First thing to try is go under the hood in the power dist center just above the battery and find the IOD fuse and pull for 20 seconds then reinsert and see if this helps at all .
