    1997 9000 Aero dash lights not working

    Just got my 9000, and realized the dash lights and interiors lights won't turn on. Any ideas or suggestions to fix it?

    Before you go chasing down wires and replacing parts, check your fuses.

    With any luck you might reach up into the dash and find that someone unplugged the instrument panel rheostat for some reason and forgot to plug it back in. If you're not quite that lucky, you will want to get out the volt ohm meter to check that and the headlight switch, real good chance it will be one of the two and a slim chance it could be something else. So don't just start ordering parts before checking for power and continuity.
