    I had similar problems with my '90 Festiva. The problems were caused by the 2 connectors that plug into the back of the instrument panel.

            good job on the tail lights. if it was as simple as that, check the bulb connectors on the headlights. seems weird if you've checked the fuses and all that both high and low beams still don't work.

                replace the fuseable link for the headlights, located on the left front strut tower.

                      If the cluster lights work, I would think that your dimmer switch would be fine. Also, your dimmer switch only controls interior lights, not headlights. You may need a new headlight switch. It is inside the steering column. If you flash your high beams, do they work at all? Or will they not even flash?

                          Sounds like the switch IMO.
