just to be sure i tested the right one you do mean the smaller wire with the bit of red tape on? would it be worth looking at the back of the ignition switch to see if one of the wires has disconnected?
yes that one that goes to d+on rear of alt

check volts on both sides of bulb with ign on and report back.
Other way is to take power from ign on, through a 5w bulb and to alternator. bulb should light with ign on and other end connected to alt and go out when engine fires up.

Thank you! I'm off work Tuesday so I'll have a good go at sorting it!
 
Will do lol. Landyzone and especially jamesmartain have allways been a godsend for help and iv managed some big jobs with his advice!


You've only gone and bloody done it now, JM's head will be swollen for days to come, he'll be stuck in one room till the swelling goes down. :D:D:D
