if you have a manual I think the bulb numbers are in there. try playing with the headlight switch by rotating it back and forth. sometimes they will come on. the dimmer is built into the switch and they get corroded over the years. I have had many many old vehicles that the dash lights start working by doing that.

This. The old headlight switch on my truck had a dead spot right near where the dash lights were the brightest. You'd rotate it over and they'd get brighter-brighter-brighter-nothing. And then you had to start over from the beginning. :lol:

I replaced the switch (while attempting to fix a separate issue) and it solved the problem.
