heat hazard light is on and also water and oil level

as in title heat hazard light stays on after starting the car and also water and oil level light is on. but no warning sounds.
if i pull the alternator switch the warning lights goes of but heat hazard still stays on.
i tried with a sensor (under the seat) and i tried it also jumpered.
it is a real JDM from 94

what can i check more to solve this problem ?

A broken circuit for the sensors will register a voltage range from the mid 4vdc to 5vdc.
Thus your fuel temp sensor is bad or the circuit is broken.
Look at the electrical manuals to research the problem.

fixed the fuel temp problem it was the sensor not connected.
but the weird issue i still have is that i pull the alternator connector and the warning lights work fine for water level and oil level. but with the connector plugged in fro; the alternator the lights lit up for 50% and if i disconnect the water level for example then the buzzer sounds but the warning light does not lit up fully. they both stay 50%.
could the problem be the alternator that is bad ? or would there be a problem in the wiring loom (modified for single turbo setup) from the engine ?

^ I am having trouble fully understanding your description of the problem. With the engine idling, all the idiot lights are on? Do you have low battery voltage with the engine running?
