Hi,

The first thing to check is the 5 amp fuse under the right side of the dash which is designated for the instrument panel lighting. See pic 1 and 2.

In addition to checking the fuse's condition, confirm there is power to it. Here is a link that you may find helpful:

Let me know what you find.
