I have just returned from an eventfull trip to Ely with my partner and the kids, Everything was fine untill we ran out of battery pwer in the wild fens.
I went to start the engine only to discover that the television switched off and the engine wouldn't turn over, I thought this was strange as the leisure battery and starter battery are on
seperate systems, I checked the voltage on boyh battrys , they were both the same 11.54, this again I thought was strange, this emplys both batterys are connected as one and
the split charge relay was permanently on. I limped back to ely , I replaced the switch and charged the battery only to discover that I am not getting a charge from the alternator, the alternator is new so I am hoping that I have wired it up wrong.
alternator part no 382-08919
it has terminals W or M
B+
3 spade connections
at the moment the exciter cable from the ignition goes to the spade connection and the charge to my battery is from B+, is this correct,
I think i have the connections the wrong way round.
thanx in advance
