...what the hell? Any thoughts? The only light that did NOT come on was the CEL. All the other other ones though, were on. This is on a bone stock S5 1991 N/A. Nothing change in how it ran. Please, any thoughts would help.

 

check your alternator belt. on my FB's when the alternator belt breaks or becomes seriously loose, all of the idiot lights will come on. i'm not sure if the same applies to the FC as i've never had that happen but it can give you a starting point.

 

alternator is the first thing that comes to mind. Check to make sure it's plug is not loose, be prepared for the battery to run out if the alt has failed.

And like he said above, it might be as easy as an alternator belt breaking.

 

All the warning lights come on when the alternator stops charging. This means either the alternator's dead or the fan belt has broken.

 

Alt. is new, but maybe the belt is bad/loose. Thanks guys, any other thoughts, or does this seem to be the case for sure?

Edit: Just went outside to check, and sure enough, belt snapped. Anyone know the booktime for replacing the alt. belt?

 

well, it's better than in the middle of the road. now you know. You have a parts store near by? or a battery charger?

 

Remember, its not good to drive with the alt belt broken as it causes the w/p pulley to slip and you will overheat.

Easy to replace, shouldn't take more than a half hour at most.

 

just take your time and do it right. You have a place to work?

 

It should take you less than ten minutes using simple hand tools. You wouldn't pay someone to do that for you would you...?
