i had the same problem, the dash lights go out when the rear lights go out, to indicate a problem to the driver, one you get the rear lights working the dash lights will work

does it matter if your lights are on or not? do your brake lights work? reverse? hazards?

Absolutely nothing no matter which switches you flick?

you may want to check one of the main fuses under the hood... there is one that controls the taillights, running lights, dash lights... I believe it's a 100amp (or something big)? check it closely as I was baffled since it looked like it was still good.

and like the others have said, check your small fuses...
