Have a shiny new alternator here, but just want to check that the chraging cicuit is all good before I get into the nightmare of working out how to get swapping it in sorted.
I'm getting no battery charge light on ignition or engine running, but know the bulb works because I have swapped in another dash fron the red truck (and swapped bulbs around).
Yellow wire going into dash/battery light shows no voltage on ignition or engine running.
Middle wire from three wire plug on back of alternator shows 12V on ignition and engine running - brown wire shows no voltage on ignition or engine running (well actually shows slight reading on engine running (0.3V).
But getting no charge at battery when engine running.
Does this mean circuit is good but alternator screwed?
Or is there anything else I can do to check the rest of the circuit? Circuit diagram shows some fuses that are meant to be left hand side of steering column, but can't for the life of me find them!
Many thanks if anyone can help out.
