Dash lighting/will not work

My dash lights along with my lighting for my heat and radio won't turn on. Can anyone lead me towards what it could be or where to look.

I changed the dimmer switch &checked all the fuses.

At random times the lights will flicker on but then will turn off it I hit a bump. Any help is appreciated.

sounds like a loose ground, or loose connection, if I remember i'll have a look through the wiring diagrams...

Okay so I was playing with my electrical. When I plug in the antenna wire into the radio, my dash lights turn off but once I take it out of the radio the radio turns off and the lights on the dash work. So confused

I do but the amp is not connected and there is no longer a sub in here. But the lighting works my dome only, but it seems whoever had it before me has aftermarket lighting in there. My cigarette lighter, glove box, dash, and heating/ac lighting does not turn on
