    ... in amongst all that you did check the fuse, yeah?

    charging battery now,
    was about 12.5v @ 87% before hand.
    charger in the last 30 min or so, input 15 amps & up to 14v @ 94% charged.
    think! I can safely rule out the battery.

    Found the alt pos charge wire end link at fuse box.
    This white wire joins to black/yellow stripe wire with a nut and bolt.
    Resistance of white wire, back to alternator 0 ohms ,good result.
    but still can't seem to remove blue 100 amp fuse to check that.
    Do these fuses have some sort of clip or have they welded themselves together?.
    I have even tried a pair of pliers on em they don't want to budge.

    Haha just noticed blue fuse for the charge wire has a bolt either side for the connections.
    holding it onto the bottom of the fuse, here goes.

    yep thats how you can get em out.
    but probing either side will give a reading with the m/meter.

    Arhh,now what it all checks out with the multi meter.
    pita.

    amongst all this I had to fit another radiator due to a third party.
    at least came good and split the cost of replacement.
    I need a holiday.

    So the Alternator sense fuse (7.5 amp) is Ok as is the Warning lamp fuse (10 amp)

    What is the resistance from the Black/Yellow junction (where it comes off White) to where it connects to the Sense terminal on the Alternator (should be yellow/Red IIRC)?

    Sense 7.5 amp fuse ok.
    alt light comes on with ign switch and goes out so that 10 amp should be ok
    have checked white & black yellow too battery pos terminal, .1 was max resistance.
    Humm have to separate the white and black/yellow and check resistance, but it was ok connected
    The black/yellow & sense wire connection yet to find and check.

    Looks as if the yellow/red sensor wire is connected via its fuse to the metal buzz bar the black/yellow is connected within the fuse box housing? yes?.
    that reads 0 resistance where the 7.5amp fuse insertion point.
    so going by all that, presume that when "load" applied with engine actually running is the issue.
    & just testing wire resistance isn't picking up on issue ??.

    And doubled-tripple checked all fuses are ok

    Going to try a jumper cables one at at time, see what happens.

    Can someone comment please!
    The load wire to dash warning light from alt shouldn't need replacing??
    There is also a number of connections for these wires in question.
    So maybe the physical connections are the issue and not the oem cables them selves?

    For this perceived cable problem--
    multi meter "cold cable" resistance readings aren't sufficient compared to real time load?.
