I was pulling over with the car in gear, engine still turning over.  The
generator light does not come on until I am *almost* stopped.  Maybe I was
all the way stopped.  So I think that tells me the power circuit is intact.

And when I go to restart, the idiot lights both come on whether the car
starts up or not.

How about the pressure switch?  Any way this could be a culprit?  I'm really
grasping at straws here. I still need to try the ECU swap.
