All of sudden one day my rear lights and all interior dash lights do not come on when they are switched on....i spoke with someone at autozone and he said he had the same problem with his old honda accord....and he said he replaced the fuses in the switch that turns on the lights. That fixed his problem. Is this a possibility...thanks to all that can help....

Are you talking about the tail lamps. Check fuse 4, 15 amp in the power distribution center, under the hood. Not only check the fuse, check that the circuit goes hot when you turn on the lite switch.

There is also a tail-lamp relay. You can unplug the relay, use a testlite, check for two hot terminals. They are hot all the time, you don't have to turn on the lite switch, to check those terminals.
