Your alternator is bad.

 

my alternator is good!!

 

I have trouble with my idiot lights too, some of them are not working, even when the bulbs are good.

As far as I have researched, all lights should come on when the ignition is on and the engine is not running. The running condition is detected using the alternator. When the alternator is generating, the W/B cable on the idiot light plug will close a ground circuit and current will flow from the B/Y cable to the W/B cable. If that circuit stays closed during normal operation, there must be some negative logic circuit somewhere that had gone bad.

I don't know if the voltage inversion (voltage to ground) logic is done on the alternator or the idiot lights themselves, I haven't tested that. What I know is that W/B is the cable that sets the signal to turn on all lights.
