All dash lights dead...wtf?

[94sentragtr]

I have a 94 sentra and a little while ago the inside lights died, the light that show the speedo the radio A/C and every light on the dash is dead. If anyone knoiws what it is lemme know plz. Thanx ohh yeh one more prob... sometime when i turn on my radio (stock radio) and i turn it up not even near half way it cuts off and says SC1 . Then i go pull the radio fuse and put the volume all the way down then put back in the fuse then it works till i put it back up louder again. Help me out guys

did you check the fuses?? that might be it...and i think the SC1 means something is wrong with the speaker wires..not sure

[94sentragtr]

well i was thinkin the same for the speakers but i checked all the fuses and relays but everything seemed fine. do you think it could be the little swivvle switch which lets you turn the dimness higher or darker?

hmm...that might be it,but do all the exterior lights turn on??

yeh all the bumper lights tail headlights everything on the outside works but when i turn them on the inside just dies (theres a little light in the screen where the radio shows the stations and on the mini clock on the speedo but when i turn on the light they die off too only light that does work when i turn on the lights is the inside dome lamp

I had the same problem with a 95' sentra. The roller switch on the dash that dims the dash lights was going bad. Sometime the lights would work and sometimes not.. That is after checking the fuse.
