It's possibly a fuse. If not that then your gauges are not pressed into the plugs in the back well enough.

it might also be that your bulbs are going out. just a few suggestions although it might be something else.

do you know much about cars or is it one of your first times this has happened?

if your dome lights and taillights are doing that then it's your alternator or your battery. don't drive the car and get the alternator changed or battery asap. a mechanic can check the voltage on your alternator and battery and easily determine the cause.
