Help dash gauge lights and radio light inop!!

My 02Z has been sitting for 3 weeks and in that time I added a power cutout. Power was spliced in from the cig lighter and grounded to the frame. Everything works. I go to run her tonight and the damn dash light and radio light are inop. I can see the odometer but barely. Checked all the gauges inside the car and they all good??!!!
WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mebbe a dumb question, but ...

Did you check the dimmer switch on the dash ?

Perhaps it got turned way down ??

Other than that, there is a fuse panel on the driver's side of the dash only accesible when the driver's door is open.

I don't have an owner's manual in front of me, but I assume you checked in there ?

Good luck - electrical can be a real bear ...

Problem fixed!
I really thought I checked all the fuses but the PONTIAC dealer said they found a blown one and hooked me up. Didn't say anything about my MCCP2 or my blacklights under the dash.
