Re: glowing dash idiot lights

Check the ground wire that goes from the battery post and then goes underneath the battery to the frame. If wire has corrosion at all you found the culprit (I also call this the CHARGING GROUND WIRE)
Replace this outdated ground wire with a higher guage wire that can withstand more resistance with a zinc or gold connector. Mount to frame with bolt or screw.
Without this wire properly grounded to the frame you get no amperage output from the alternator and car runs on battery power.
Also check the engine 'Ground Strap'
