My dash lights and my rear lights (back lights and tail light) have all ceased to work - are they connected in anyway? Or is this a coincidence?

Any thoughts would be appreciated..

I have the same problem as 1976miniss.
The standard and high beam work but no parkers, dash or rear lights.
Is this fuse under the bonnet or behind the dash.
I have a custom dash that is a pain to take apart so i don't want to pull it out if I don't have to.

Found it.
It is under the bonnet on the firewall behind the dash.
I had sound proofing over the top of it.
All fixed.
