My electric gauge to show charge has now seemed to be creeping into the red. It has now sent my split charge display system on my dsash into a frenzy as it is bleeping its head off saying that there is overcharge. I guess my question is can this damage anything and why could I be getting to much electrictricity? and how do I rectify this?

Im no electronic guru, but generally speaking, gauges going into the red and frantic beeping sounds generally dont indicate that everything is running smoothly

alternator built in regulator gone haywire delivering too much current?

Get it checked at a garage (most will do for free)

tis your alternator, its goosed, maybe only the rectifier but get it checked or changed asap, dual battery and split charge= dual cost of replacing batteries and possibly fecked split charger.

get it checked

Thanks for the help guys, I called the dealer as it was a new alternator fitted only a couple of weeks ago. The altrernator is goosed apperentlyand a new one will be fitted tomorrow.
