No Dash Lights .. Fuse good

the power for the fuse comes from the headlight switch. my guess is the dimmer in the headlight switch for the dash light is bad ... the wire coming from the headlight switch for the dash lights is TAN. it goes to the fuse box and the other side of the fuse in the box is ORANGE wire. if you pull the switch and do not have +12v on the tan wire the switch is bad. did you try and trun up the dash lights with the dimmer on the headlight switch ?
