While driving home I decided my feet were toasty enough so I hit the button to change it from feet to defrost/feet... and BAM my dash lights go out. Everything still works, just not the dash lights. I get home, track down the fuse for the dash lights and swap it out. No worky. I check all the other fuses as well, no blown fuses

So, what could be my issue?

Recap:
Completely stock 97 LX Civic sedan...
Dash lights go out.
No blown fuses.

Dimmer switch was the culprit.
