I recently replaced the dash in my 1971 chevelle and had every thing working until I put the dash cover on. Now I can't get the lights to turn on for all the dash gages, radio, clock, and A/C. It was working fine before that. I have checked the fuses and found none of them to be blown. Can anyone give me any suggestions on what could be wrong and how to fix it.
Thanks,
Jon

inst panel lights are fed from fuse panel (small fuse at bottom of fuse box)
ground wire should be hooked to area around ebrake and dash panel
if still nothing the lightswitch itself could be faulty check for voltage where gray wire comes from switch

Yes, it is grounded and I will check the voltage of the switch and get back to you all soon.
Thanks for the Help,

Try checking the flexible circuit board attached to the back of the instrument cluster, that one of the copper traces didn't get torn or cracked when the dash top was put back on.
