hey im just wondering if anyone has had a similar problem to what im having. ive got a 93 coupe (KA) that is dying on cold start up. everything ran perfect until i washed the motor (with it running). now my e-brake light is on all the time and my charge indicator is on really dim. after looking at the wiring diagram it looks like the e-brake and charge indicator are the only dash lights grounded through the alternator. i tested it with a VAT-65 and it had 90A output and the diodes were good. its been over a month since the issue started and just letting it dry out hasnt worked, any ideas?
