Dash cluster back lights quit working randomly

Just went out to pull my car into the garage and the back-lights on the dash and behind the climate controls are completely dark when they were working fine earlier today. I checked the fuse inside the cab marked cluster and it is fine. What the hell could be wrong, where do I start?

Never mind I think I know what happened. I remember this happening before and it was from the piece of **** little LED wires on my aftermarket headlights shorting out the park light circuit from me having the headlights in and out 100 times. I'm sure that's what it is as I don't have taillights either. I'm just going to disconnect those from the circuit completely.

FYI that was what the problem was. If anyone else has this problem it blows the park lamp fuse. Before you replace the fuse find the short and fix it.
