My dash lights will randomly shut off, odometer, speedometer and tachometer will not work. When I shut the car off while the dash lights are out my security light will not blink and I can restart the car. If the dash shuts off while the car is off and the security light is not blinking the car will start but shut off in a couple seconds. Any idea of what the problem might be?

try resetting security system then have the dash checked for being bad, these occasionally go bad andneed to be rebuilt
