Default No park lights or guage lights help

My GFs car has no park lights or guage cluster lights, still has blinkers and hazards. Headlights still work and I couldn't see a blown fuse.

Any help? Thanks

Did you check the fuses in the power distribution center under the hood, the fuse block in the dash, or both? If you look in the fuse block in the end of the dash, fuse #15 should be for the Panel Illum/Park Lamps.

did you pull the fuse to be sure? just saying... I had my multifunction switch (mfs) come loose at the connection and it acted this way, does the dome light turn on from the mfs when you turn it on manually and all doors closed?

Yeah I pulled the fuse and didn't look blown, but I didn't put a new one in there to double check, I am gonna take it to a shop and see if they can diagnose the issue, I know nothing about dodge cars after 1972 lol

Are both tail light bulbs good? If one is bad, replacing it should solve the parking light issue. Or the multi function switch is taking a dump.

It's all the park lights not just the rears. So I assume the mfs is bad

Just replace it yourself, it'll be cheaper than taking it to a shop

If the mfs was bad wouldn't the headlights not turn on?
