This problem is typically the headlight switch. But listen to freegdr, he knows his stuff.
Knowledge is power.

Had similar failure, was my headlight (under dash on the column) dimmer switch?? go figure. Jumpered at the dimmer switch to get headlites.
When my running and dash lites failed on a seperate occassion it was the push me pull me headlit switch on the dash. sun of gun to reach but replaceable.

I had the same problem with my Jeep. I used a $3 flashlight from Walmart and stuck it under the trip reset button. Anyway just got it fixed on Friday at my buddy's shop. It was the headlight switch. I got a 1990 Laredo.
On a side note, now I can do my LED swap
