no dash warning lights???

[jjitaljob]

hi everyone im plumbing in my wiring, couldnt get mini spark at first so decided to make a coil live off the starter live(live when ign on only) so this cured that problem. lights on dash fine for a few turn overs then they both went (both being bat lamp and oil press.) any ideas? we removed the live we made for coil and still nothing? checked all fuses made permanant links to all fuse wires, still nothing? could this have naything to do with wiper park switch as have heard they create issues? also would a faulty alternator cause the oil pressure light to fail to appear?? any info pleaseeee..

I think a faulty alternator would usually make the ignition lamp stay lit?

Arn't they meant to go off after a few cycles if the engine is good?

or do you mean they dont come on when the ignition is a turn away from starting?

itso k now guys all sorted. wanna guess what it was??? well ill tell you.. it was the fuses inside the car. i removed the fuses and connected those and they worked so now they are attached to my new fuse box on the dash. minis up and running great now. fine tuning in need though. starts off the key without choke
