Good battery/electrical system failure
I have a 1995 1500. I've never had electrical issues until Saturday when I went to start it. I turned the ignition and for a split second the dash lit up and then DEAD. Today I got around to hooking up a charger and the battery is good. But nothing electrical works. I pulled the headlight switch "on" but the headlights did not come on. A weird "boing boing" noise came from the dash, so some juice is flowing. The stereo does not work. The engine won't turn over...not nothing but close to it.
I have googled and searched here with no joy.
Is there a main fuse, relay, or breaker I should be looking at?
I know this sounds noob-ish. I am not a gearhead, but I'm not a meathead either. Thanks for your indulgence...

MegaZ I just posted up the first 11 pages to the instrument cluster in a 2002.
I am not sure if it will work for your application, but the diagnosis/testing procedure may.
Good luck My man!

Well, call me meathead. The battery terminals looked clean. I checked the fuses next to the battery and the ground at the power steering pump....all good. So for the hell of it, I pulled the batttery clamps, scrubbed the battery posts with a scotchbrite pad, tightened the clamps and voila! She started right up.
