Default Dash problems?

I checked all my fuses inside the cabin and under the hood and I can't seem to find out why my dash does not display the turn signals. To further explain, my turn signals do work but the dash does not display the turn signals that they’re working, same goes for hazard light button, lights are on and working but not showing up inside on the dash. Further my open door beep does not sound when the key is in the ignition, nor does the beep indicating that my headlights are still on. Lastly I am not getting a light on the dash when I put the high beams on. To be clear again everything works on the outside of the car, but no indicatiors or beeps are working on the inside. Anyone know what could be the cause?

Have you actually checked the fuses using a multimeter? Sometimes when you think a fuse isn't bad it really is. A multimeter would solve that problem real quick.

I am currently experiencing the same problem, the dealer diagnosed it as the a/c amplifier. It's located behind the HVAC controls (white box with ribbon cable) $350 +new.

I was hoping it wasnt that box ha. But that does make sense. By any chance do you know what caused yours to go bad?

The tech said it was shorting out (arching) internally. A suggestion was made to check all the solder contacts but I plan on locating a used one and having it installed. The interior hasn't been touched, so it went bad on it's own.

AC amplifier. Try and find one from a part-out thread. Mine cost over $700 (parts+labor) from the dealer and it took them a week just to find the problem. If they would have just told me what it was I would have driven it around with no interior lights/speedo until I found one for cheap...oh well.

There could be an internal short in the dash or maybe a power wire has come loose behind the dash.
