The only light show I get is the "brake" light IF the parking brake is on, and the "Low Fuel" which only comes on and stays on IF the fuel is low.  The console gages will give bogus readings until the power is turned on and will then snap to the correct readings.  The owners manual only mentions that the generator light will come on and then go off, however that is replaced by your console gauge.
This is one case where no lights at all is good news.

Do you have factory console gauges? Those cars didn't have a generator light. Without factory gauges, you'll have a generator light.

Without console gauges all the lights come on when you turn the key through the start process except brake if it's off.
