1995 Ranger dash lights issue

OK, so i noticed i had 1 bulb that was working for illumination on the dash. I pulled out the instrument bezel and replaced all the 194 bulbs. I put the bezel back with the 3 different plug connectors and then plugged in the light switch and dimmer switch to test them. Not working now, but the radio and hvac lights do come on. So, i checked the fuses for giggles and all are good. Any ideas why now none of them are turning on? and Yes i did make sure the dimmer switch was on high

Well if all the lamps were replaced & were good, the dash light fuse is good, connectors all properly fastened, the dimmer in high, then that suggests the circuit has lost it's ground connection. You can look up your lamp circuit & ground wiring here. Search Wiring Diagrams Some thoughts for consideration, let us know what you find.
