Hope this is in the right place for some help
I have bought myself a Defender 110 TD5 to get away from the electronic pain the first and the second P38's have caused me, guess what flat battery, no problem throw in a new one 80 euros [I live in Ireland]a week later flat again, 100 miles from home, fcuk, must be the alternater so I took that off [not a ten minute job] and down to local repair shop, 100 euros please Sir. Back on with the big lump, still no joy. Did the fcucker do anything to the alternater beside's a rub with a wire brush and a coat of wheel silver, off again back to repair shop, I said things still not working did you do anything to it, I did he said its working fine you tosser,[after him showing me it working on bench test] bollocks back home tail between my legs put it back on.
Still no electrickery. Now I now how its all suppose to work and it looks like a wiring fault, the battery warning light on dash does not come on when the ignition is switched on . Has anyone had a similar experience please.
If anyone has any problems with P38's I might be able to help I have one of the Rovercom diagnostic thingy's and had all the usual problems with my 2 P38's
