Dashboard lights not working

There are no dashboard lights for any and all dials on the dashboard, RPM, gas, etc. Went home at night without being able to tell how fast I was going. We checked all fuses, the ones in the engine area, the two on the dashboard on either side of the car. All were fine. We had read that sometimes when a cars tail lights go out, it will shut down your dashboard making you aware that you have a tail light issue. Not the problem either. Tail lights, brake lights, head lights, fog lights all work. Our dashboard has multiple light bulbs to different areas of the dash, not sure if it could be the bulbs, but I think it would be a freak coincidence if all of a sudden all the light bulbs weren't working, that is why we were hoping it was a fuse! Any and all suggestions would be welcomed! Thanks for your time!
