    Finished fitting my CA into my S13, it started and runs fine.

    Only issue I have is that none of the gauges in the instrument cluster are working and also my exterior lights won't work and my lights will not pop up.

    I have managed to get the clock to work, the lights that tell me the handbrake is on and that the door is open to work and when I turn the engine over the rev counter moves but then goes back down again!

    I believe it may have something to do with the alternator as I blew the 75amp fuse which is for the alternator, the issue I have is that I am unsure if all the wires on the alternator is correctly connected up.

    What I am looking for is anyone who has an idea as to why this could be happening and also hoping someone could post a picture up of the alternator on the CA18DET so I can see how it needs to be wired up!

    Thanks for the help in advance!

    Check the engine bay fuse box. It won't be a blade fuse but one of the long nissan ones
