SES Light Help

Ok I am Going to be making my own Guage Panel With AutoMeter Guages in the near future.
My Question is What Type of Light or Led can Be used and how do I wire it. I hooked up my Volt meter the other day to my SES light Wiring to see what wires it was. I had a Jumper Between pins A-B on the ALDL but there was no guage cluster in the car just the harness. I am pretty sure it looks for some type of Resistance to work properly. Jim85IROC, Tim Burgess, Trickster anyone Please..

Are you planning to use the printed circuit board tape that is presently in the car in this project?

Ok Trickster after your Pm I guess it would make more Sense on Explaning on What I Plan to use and how I want to do it. That way I get the Help Without Grabbing at straws.

ok For My Guages I am Going to Use All Autometer Phantom Electric Guages.

The Dash Panel Will House a 5" Speedometer, 5" Tach 2 5/8" Fuel Level Guage, Two Green L.E.Ds (turn signal) One Blue L.E.D (High Beams) one Orange L.E.D for SES Light (if Possiable) Now I have Baught a Autometer 3 Guage Panel That I Am FIberglassing in Where The Center Vents are on a Camaro. It Will house 2 5/8" Water Temp, 2 5/8" Oil Pressure, 2 5/8" Fuel Pressure. Then I will have a Autometer 3 Guage Pillar Pod that will House 2 1/16" Trans Temp, 2 1/16th Oil Temp 2 1/16th Volt Guage.
Then Some Where I will Find a Place to Mount the Shift Light. lol
Below is a Quick PhotoShop Of The Basic Idea of the Dash Panel

BTW I am Keeping the 1227165 ECM so That is why I need a functional SES lol

I am very Very Picky on Being able to see exactly What the Engine, Tranny is doing. Most People Probally Think I am crazy for Going With Some of these Guages but it is better to know that if the tranny fluid is running hot I know I have a problem Before the Tranny or converter Breaks. I usually Draft a Web page of each project I am doing With Part # and ECT to make sure I get Everything, Some times I don't even Publish it to the web Just Easy way to orginize Info for my Self. Thanks for the Quick Reply Let me know what you find out.
