I had a similar problem on my car before. Dash lights were intermittent but would come on if the headlight knob was wiggled around a bit. The problem turned out to be a bad headlight switch.

Problem Found!!!!!

There was a "wire" broken on the circuit board. I jumped that and the lights came on!!! I need a new board that houses the fuel/pressure/temp cluster! But I guess it can wait a while! I finally have lights after 6 months of darkness
