Take that fuse out! When a fuse is blown it doesn't mean it needs a higher amp fuse. You're looking for trouble that way, if not already!

Turn your dimmer switch "on" and see if the gauge cluster lights up while you have your parking/head lights on. If so, it's the switch. Also, the chime box is ran off that circuit, so you can unplug that and see if that's the problem, if it's not the dimmer.

First off, you have to specify which car you are having problems with. You have several and there are differences between models and years.
