You're on the right track looking  at the fuse.  But if it isn't the fuse 
it 
just might be the connections  to the fuse block.  The other evening I lost 
my dash lights.  As  it turns out I also lost my tail lights and front 
running lights.  The  fuse was good and the fuse connection was good.  
Still no 
lights.   But when I unplugged one red wire and plugged it back in all was  
restored.

FWIW, I had the same problem awhile  back. Lost running lights, dash 
lights, etc.  It ended up being the dash  rheostat.  I touched it and 
everything 
started working.  Haven't  touched it since.
