So I just bought a 95 st hatchback and there are a few issues with it. First when I was driving it home today after I bought it I noticed the speedo , rpm, and temp gauge did not work, also the power windows will not work, and most importantly while I was almost home the headlights started to dime and the car died on me and I had to get a jump to get back home. Im pretty sure I need a new alternator but Im not sure if that would explain everything else thats wrong with the car.

do the gauges light up?

Check the fuses in the dash (right above the dead pedal in the dash) and replace any that look to be broken.

Then get your alternator tested.


Report back with the above information.
