Just bought my first Surf, originally planned as being a project vehicle but it almost passed MOT with no work!!
However, current problem is at tickover battery not charging fully and all dashboard lights are on and its beeping away. Having looked through some of the threads this could point out at alternator?
It reaches the correct charging level if you rev it to about 3k. The lights also all go off if you drive it. Am I best just putting in a recon alternator?
Currently I'm replacing the timing belt so its only a couple of bolts off to replace alternator.
Any thoughts/suggestions much appreciated
Thanks
