Its a fuse

Inside of you car driver side take the little panel off on the side of the dash look for something called gauges or something to that effect hope that helps

Did you try the DIMMER fuse?
That turns all the lights you said are going off, in my car
when I pull it...

All of the interior lights are out in one of my Camaros. The dash is fine, it's just the interor lighting that is out. The fuses look good and I haven't had a chance to chase it down after that.

Pull off the trim panel that covers the drivers side kick panel (close to where your hood latch is). There is a ground post behind it. Make sure all the grounds are secure.

thanks to all who have posted. i figured out what it was. was nothing to do with any type of fuse or ground of any sort just plain old stupidity which i seem to have a constant supply of. when i put in my overlays about a month ago it came with its own dimmer with the blue/green light switch with instructions to not use the stock dimmer for the new overlays. so i guess i never payed attention that one time when i turned off my headlights that i turned off the stock dimmer all in one. d@mn do i feel stupid.

Hehe, don't feel bad. That happens to everyone at least once in awhile.
