Default wiring issues.

ok so here is my problem.
i have a 93 eg coupe that was originally a DX that we put a D16Z6 into, im having some problems that im not sure how to fix or even locate, first of all the starter wont do anything, at first i thought it was bad but i took it to get tested and it passed no problem. second my temp gauge is all over the place and keeps telling me the car is over heating when it seems to be fine. then the other night i was driving and my stereo shut off and all my gauges went dead and all my lights started dimming, and i had the alternator checked and it passed no problem too so im completely lost.

now when we wired in vtec we did run an apexi neo which i pulled out for another car, the engine harness we didnt touch. but we did do a little rewiring from the ecu. but wiring is not my strong point so im hoping someone can point me in the right direction on how to fix it. any help would be awesome!

thanks.

Starter: Check the starter switch located at the top of the clutch pedal.

Temp gauge: Check the 1-wire connector to the temp sending unit under the distributor. Is it loose or contaminated with oil? The sending unit itself could also be bad.

Gauges: Check whether dash fuse #15 is blown.

Dash lights: Possibly a bad dimmer switch in the dash.
