If it is only the lights behind the gauges that don't work and the lights around the radio and A/C work, I would have a look at the connector that would plug into your dash light dimmer switch (if you had one).
There should be a jumper wire in it, if this has been unplugged this will stop the lights behind the gauges from working.
