The Bearwood Boster

Hi folks, I have a problem with one of my alt' which hopefully one of the experts on the forum can help me with. I have twin 70A alt's on a Izuzu engine with an adverc controller, onto a start battery and 4 x 125Ah battery domestic bank. The aux warning light on my instrument panel is glowing. When I put a meter from the B+ to ground and then the D+ to ground on my port alt' both show the same volt (circa 15v) when I do the same for the s/b alt' the B+ shows the same volts as the port alt' (circa 15V) but the D+ which feeds one side of the warning lamp is showing 19V which is I assume why the warning lamp is glowing. I guess this means I have an internal fault with this alt' and it will need to be removed for testing/fixing. Is my guess correct? Will I damage anything by running the engine and still charging the battery banks until I remove the s/b alt'? Thanks to anyone who has the time to reply. Regards

They run Santa trips through the tunnel,I've seen the lights in previous years -they're brill !

Titford level above the Old Main Line now closed due to loss of water over the weekend. Down more than 2 feet! We are now unable to get our boat back to our home mooring at the PumpHouse, so stuck in Bham until BW find some water.

Take a look at Cowl silencers from IPU Group.(www.ipu.co.uk). They are based in the Midlands ask for Jonathan Hickman. I have no interest in IPU but have bought one of their silencers recently and it works well.
