Hi, if your referring to lights on dash meaning the warning informational lights and not the dash lights(instrument i.e. speedo etc.) then my guess is it may be tied to a faulty ignition switch as that is what turns on the power to the warning lights when the ignition is first turned on. It may also be the circuit board for the dash itself.
