Hi there one and all,
Driving home tonight the brake light filter light alternator light timing belt light and oil light all came on as I was driving and have stayed on. would anybody have an idea of what to look for?I’m assuming it’s a bad earth any thoughts please would be greatly appreciated.
 
When that happened on my Hilux, it was the alternator on the way out. Car died on me shortly after. New alternator sorted it.
 
With a bit of luck it is just the connector on the alternator with a bad connection, else it could be what snowbound already mentioned : alternator kaput!
 
I tried taking off the connector but I didn’t have any luclass didn’t want to force it and break something so I’ve sprayed it with contact cleaner
voltmeter is showing 13.2 V but when you raise the engine it’s not increasing
