ottawa...need help

so the car is up and running for the first time since august when i installed a headlight conversion.
the problem i have is that my headlights+indicators+tail lights and alarm system do not function properly.
there is a buzzing sound and nothing lights up except the instrument panel.

I'm going to wait another 20 minutes until the price goes up to $200.

Seriously though: Wiring diagrams are available online, and you should have a digital multimeter. The rest should be easy.

It sounds like the s5 turn signal was used. instead of an s4. or even the other way around. try getting a turn signal switch for your car, just to be sure.

fyi, the headlight and wiper switches are switchable, but not the turn signal switch
