I have had  LED instrument\generator(red) bulbs since 2009. =20

My understanding is that an LED is fine for a dynamo, but for an =
alternator the current generated by the warning light is what gets the =
field coils energised, and LEDs pull so little current that the field =
coils will not energise, and so no generation takes place.
