i also have same problem but did learn something related. if you have an external voltge regulator system, it needs the gen light bulb in the old dash panel or wont charge. the bulb is part of the circuit. i had to hook up the brown wire from old panel to #5 on the new panel. this will now be connected to temp light, but will allow charging system to work.
