s13 Headlight/dashlight issuesh

Hello, I have a few issues I hope someone can help me out with. First my normal headlights don't work I have to drive with my brights on an just lastnight I turned on my dash lights and they started flickering and went out. So now I have no dash lights.

Anything would help, thanks

sounds to me like a loose connection.. i would check the connection in your headlight switch.. when you turn on your headlights, push and pull (lightly) on the switch, and move it around, see if it forces contact.

if not that, it could be the TCS box (the little box under the dash that controls the light timing, radio, dimness, and seatbelts)

ok makes sense, one thing I forgot to mention is that the dash lights stay on now when the light switch is switched off when they normally would be off.
