Default Starter problems

Hey all! My starter went out on my C6 ZO6 supercharged. My question is after I installed the new starter my headlights are on, my temp gauge reads high, the battery amps is reading under 13 volts, the heads up display isn't on and my boost gage isn't working. My air/fuel ration is good is about the only positive.

Any suggestions

Fan could be having issues keeping up in the heat pulling more amps than it should.

After I got home I noticed the fan was on longer than normal. But what about the heads up display and the boost gauge?

Sounds like your alternator isn't producing enough power to run all of your electronics. I would test the alternator and the battery.
