Hi s,
Welcome!
First Post!!!!
You've not given very much information about your problem.
Have they ever worked since you've had the car?
Have you done any work behind the dash?
Have you done any work back at the spare tire near the fuel sender unit?
Has the wiring at the alternator been disturbed? Does the ammeter needle drop below the mid point if you operate electrical parts with the engine not running?
Are the other dash lights and indicators operating?
Doe the cig. lighter and it's lamp work?
???
Regards,
Alan
