Default 1998 Blazer Dash & Dome Light Issue

OK, this morning, my dash lights went out and the dome light, rear interior tail gate light, and floor lights came on. The dome light is dimmer than what it normally is, but lights up normally when I open the door, as it should. No dash lights at all, all other lights stay on while driving if I have the headlights on, if I don't have the headlights on, there are no lights on. Any suggestions beyond checking fuses? And I tried another headlight switch I had laying around, no help.

One other thing I forgot to mention, when the dash lights went out, I heard a click. I found a blown 20 Amp fuse, replaced it with a new one, but no luck.

So, I have noticed that I have no exterior lighting, only head lights. I have no running lights, tail lights, or license plate light. My guess is that something shorted out on the dash control panel? Anyone know how to remove the instrument cluster so I can look at it and/or replace it?
