You've either got a loose/broken connection or a bad earth somewhere in the dash wiring.

Could also be the bulbs them self have blowen but the wire inside them make contact when they have been bumped.

True, that can happen, but unlikely if all bulbs are doing it at the same time. Not sure how many bulbs there are in the dash but, probably only 2 or 3. This is one of those situations where it's a process of elimination.
