Hi All
I need some help with my series III SWB landy. The battery is not charging correctly. I initially thought it was the alternator because of the way it died.
I lost main beam first, then indicators, then main lights, side lights, eventually 5 miles from home a dead engine ---
I have replaced the alternator today for a brand new one, when the engine is running my multi reader is reading 13 - 14v on the 3 pin connector that is on the back.
With the old battery in, I went for a drive to try and give it a little charge, not only did the battery not charge, I lost brake and indicator lights also...
I have a new battery to install, however I would like to sort the charging problem out first... I don't want two flat batteries !
Can anybody point me in the right direction on what to do next? Have I missed something obvious?
Cheers
