Dash lights, parking lights, and spedometer all quit working?!

Hello, I am new to this forum and to rx-7's. I recently bought a 1986 rx-7 for $1000 and so far I love it. The other day the parking lights, taillights, and spedometer all quit working. I check the fuses and the bulbs and now I don't know what to do. Any help would be great. Also on a side note: sometimes when the engine is idling it revs up and down for a while, not a big problem but it is kind of weird. I have changed the spark plugs, wires, fuel filter, and air filter. Other than that I don't know what to do, I'm not a mechanic.

Found in the FAQ for FC thread at the top of the FC section:
My tail lights don't work, but my head lights do
The light switch connections may have burnt out. Check the back of the light switch.

My dash lights don't work
Did you check the dimmer control??? If you did and they still don't work the light switch connections may have burnt out. Check the back of the light switch.
