2000 Grand Am-dash lights problem

Hello All,

I own a 2000 Grand Am, have very little mileage on it and have recently experienced a dash lights problem. Not all the time - but, there are many times when I start my car and the dash lights and shifter lights are out. The car runs fine but my headlights, meters (tachometer, gas, etc), and heat don't work. After the car runs for a minute, everything functions properly.

I brought it to the dealer and they said that they checked everything, didn't find any problems, and they "could not duplicate conern at this time".

Any ideas of what might be the cause and how to fix it?

Thanx!!
