I have a 2003 blazer. When i turn on my lights the dash lights go out, but if i turn my dimmer switch betwwen the overhead lamps on and full dash dimmer high lighting its fine when lights are on or off. but sometimes when your driving, for some reason it still turns dash lights off?
SOURCE: Dome light and reading lamps stay on and will not cut off.
your door close switch is non-functional. its located in the door jamb. its a black button the size of a shirt button. usually held in by one or two screws.
there is one for each door.

Try hitting your dome over ride switch 4 times with the truck running. You should hear a couple of dings and your headlights should shut off. Now hit the switch 4 more times and see if that resets the auto lamp system. If not the next thing I would check is the brake light switch, its under slightly under the dash attached to you brake pedal. Those can slip out of the proper position and cause problems with some of the electrical systems.

if the key is getting stuck its the Brake Shift Interlock Solenoid its just under the ignition switch you have a short in it you can unplug it or replace it what its doing is over heating the solenoid and at times it can drain your battry.and for the trans acting up you could have a short to one of your solenoids or it could be the trans filter.
SOURCE: when i turn the key I get no dash lights, 97 blazer
I had the same exact thing happen to me, I have a 97 blazer and after hours of screwing around with it and several different options... it turned out to simply be the ignition switch.
Testimonial: "Cheers really appreciated that the second opinion was very helpful, mine also just turned out to be just the ignition switch. SO what will be next ???"
