All dash warning lights on and break warning siren is going

Post by Zamad »

I removed rebuild and reinstalled an engine in a 4runner. But didn't manage to bolt the ground onto the engine. I turned the engine to ON and all my dash lights when on as usual, but wasn't usual was that one of the relays was going off. I looked around for the problem and discovered the ground wasn't hooked up.

But when I finally got around to starting it all the dash lights stay on and the break warning relay is emitting a continuous high frequency beep. I don't think it's the alternator as it's still charging the battery.
The only problem other than that is the park light fuse blew. Other than that it seems to be fine.
