   well basically my rev counter doesn't work. so i took out the clocks and found out that they have stuffed two bits of black tape in the lights to cover them up. so i took them out and the handbrake light is on. and also the battery light is constantly on.
   
   so i checked the brake fluid level andits fine plus put the handbrake down and its still on. any ideas?
   
   also ideas for the battery light? "/ thanks

   Get a garage to check alternator, battery and the wiring inbetween
