    Gents have had the gremlin rear its head again and me and lex have been there with the meter checking the charge. photos attached. The alternator had a spade missing so connected and put onto battery. Red in picture. But didn't help. then checked this little plastic box that was putting out a live charge in photos. Anyone know what it does???? Then had a look at fuse box and missing a fuse in channel 7 of the box. Put a fuse in and it blew twice. So it has a live charge of 12.4. The other problem we think we have is that the battery is not going out completely once started once it goes above 1500 revs goes out but then comes back on dimly. Can anyone suggest what is causing this live fuse to blow, battery not to charge and just doing my head in. Fed up of having to park on hills to bump start if it doesn't wanna go.

    On early model fuse panels number 7 is brake light, glove box light and cigarette lighter. On later it is interior light cig lighter and clock.

    Do your brake lights work?

    If you have time today I'm happy to take a look, but Springwoods a long drive.
