... in amongst all that you did check the fuse, yeah?
Trying to check all connections etc but,
The 2 blue 100 amp fuses in engine bay fuse block don't want to pull out !!.
why not ??
yep .Quote:

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)Quote:

Sense 7.5 amp fuse ok.Quote:

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?.
