HELP!!! No warning lights...

Could be similar to my previous thread

https://www.rx7club.com/showthread.p...warning+lights

But yeah, when my key is in the ignition and it's turned half way aren't all the warning lights supposed to come on? The only warning light coming on is the open door and e-brake.

Oh yeah and my alt is putting out about 13.5 volts.


Thanks

oR STUCK CAPS LOCK?

Yeah, cold solder joints...But don't discount actually burnt out blubs as well. Rare, but possible.

Your alternator should be putting out a healthy 14.7V at RPMs greater then idle. Sounds like you may have a faulty voltage regulator or blown rectifier.

Crap this never ends....
Where are those cold solder joints? Under the driver side dash? Can I still drive the 7 without anyother problems?

THey are in the logicon themselves. It is eal easy to fix them IF that is the prob. If not then there is probably something wrong with your car that is making this happen.
