Dashboard light dont work. need help
 

I took out my radio, put a new one in. It got dark, so i turned on my headlights, they worked, but my dash lights didnt. What the deal? I adjusted the dimmer knob and nothing happenend. What could be the problem?

check the fuse. I am not sure which one but it is printed on that little door.

Yeah, as ugh3012 says, first check fuse #30 in the under-dash fuse/relay box.

If the fuse is fine, then determine whether the dimmer switch is bad by performing the test described in the picture.

Make sure all the wires in the radio harness are taped up and insulated. One of them is the lighting wire; if it touches ground the fuse will blow again. This wire may not be connected to the radio but it still needs to be insulated so it can't short out.
