that's good, something so simple....
Check the fuses, that is most likely the issue, there is a bunch of fuses under the hood and on the drivers side dash, take each fuse out and see if it looks burnt on the ends. You can also get a tester at your local auto part store and see if any of the fuses are bad that way as well (you should just go to the part store anyways as you should need some fuses/should have some fuses in the car at all times just in case). People at the store may help you test or change the fuse as well.
the switch is the thing you use to turn on the lights and turn signals while driving.
For yours I would start with the potentiometer, and switch that comes on when you put your vehicle in gear (parking brake switch on manual's) If you still have headlights and turn signals, then the switch I mentioned in that post is apparently doing it's job. Dash lights and DRL's are a different story. Check that relay that the OP mentions as well.

I will think of a better signature later.
Ok I'm having a problem with my dash lights first it started to flicker then stay on for the last couple of months now they are completely out! along with that my passenger side tail light and my passenger side blinker went out as well very strange i checked the fuses and the relays all good and i changed the bulbs *bright idea i know* and nothing i went to kragens and bought the led blue lights so i can see at night any suggestions on what might be going on? or should i just spent the 300 to figure it out and fix it??
check the grounds. also check for power to the fuses.

pull hard?
it its a junction, you might ned to split the board from the fuse block, (take the fuse block in half).
if you dont want he jumping to look as clean as the dealer did, jump over it, and dont take it out.
