Default Help needed.. 1. E-brake and battery light turns on. 2. dash light fickers

hello, recently i changed out my old alternator to new one( re manufactured) off from ebay
idk the oem denso amp is
but the new one is 105amp( 4gauge wire n inline fuse idk what amp gonna chck tmr)
i copied a thread link below. the guy who had same issue as mine currently. not sure he solved the problem or not..

i have 4 gauge wire with inline fuse connected, i havent checked what fuse i have. ( 4 g wire n inline was installed by previous onwer)

here is the link:
http://honda-tech.com/honda-prelude-...-time-2957179/

the reason y i bought a new alt cuz my dash-light flickers When i apply brake paddle( i thought it would solve the problem, but no)and when i close the window the car shook due to low rpm ( solved by a new alt) also i have changed out a new brake switch it didn't effect anything.

So i have 2 problems i need to fix
1. about the battery n ebrake light ( exact problem written by other guy Link above).
2. Dash light flickers when i apply brake, But NOT when i turn my headlight or parking light on.

Stupid question, but did you forget to put your belt back on?

Running the engine with the belt off will cause the same symptoms you're experiencing. As well as having your alternator disconnected. On the new parallel wire, did you tap it into the fuse box just as the OEM wire does or did you go straight to the battery? If you did the latter, that's your issue. The Engine harness/charging harness is routed into the fuse box.

Good luck.

Thanks for reply guys.
i fixed it~,
it was alternator + load resistor + parking+brake LED bulbs
i did some research about s2k ap1 electrical component,
my alternator fuse(under drivers side fuse box) didnt blow.
i just learned that fuse is connected to many components.
alt , cc , etc,.
so what ima do next is try high watt LEDs and test it out and get my Cruise control fixed without load resistor.

btw with/without load resistor ur cc wont function properly.
