dash lights wont work

Ive got 2 birds, a 86 v6 bird and a 89 formula and i cant get the dash lights to work on either one of them. Ive checked all of the fuses and wireing but i cant seem to find out what is worng. Is there a relay somwhere that could have went bad? Any thoughts/ opnions appreciated, thanks

Well ive messed arround with the turn signal switch because the turn signals dont work either, everything seems pretty solid and looks as if it is working but the steering column is really loose, u can move it a good 4 inches in each direction. My dad said its just a bad worm gear and it can be fixed, do you think i need to just replace the column? thanks
