My son turned the truck on to come home and no dash lights were working. I checked all the fuses in fuse box and all are good. this vehicle has on occasion lost all power to gauges and will not power them up until truck is turned off and when turned back on all gauges work fine. this dash light deal is new though

Since they all went out, I would make sure the connection behind the dash is tight and clean. Also, check to make sure no grounds came off. If everything looks good, the next thing I would check would be the body control module (BCM)
