S5 alternator swap, now i have no dummy lights
i just did my s5 alternator swap on my SE and i have no dummy lights ex the parking brake and the seat belts lights, doesn anybody that have done it have this problem? what should i check, i check all fuses and they are ok, and the car starts and works right. thanks

i checked, and is out putting 14.2 volts on my gauge when is running and it seems is working fine. i check all the fuses and the ones on the fender and they all look ok, everything on the car (radio, wipers, lights, gauges) is ok start right up with no problems, actually feels much better but the dummy lights doesnt come on when i turn the key on like it use to and i need atlease the one for the low rad water, btw wich one is the choke&check relay, i have a GSLSE and as far i know it doesnt come with choke.

Driven a turbo FB lately?
iTrader: (1)
its a metal rectangular box. it has 2 plugs one has a 4 pin and one is a 2 pin
Id imagine maybe the alt you got isnt toggling negative to the relay that makes those lights come on and then off.
See the way it works is, when you turn the key theres power to this relay which lights the lites up. When the alt starts charging, it turn the relay off.
Of course I could be wrong, never messed with an -SE, but I know Im right for other models. Id just say the hell with it, as long as its charging.
