warning lights

[flyingj]

hi just a bit of help needed ,kzn185,have read through a few posts regarding this, just can quite pinpoint the same problem...
wife brought surf back this eve she said the t belt light is on the bat light, abs. also another which i think is something to do with the fuel. done a check on the batteries they are showing 12.4 and both of these are quite new.
the lights go out on idle and if i turn the lights or heater on, but if i rev the engine or just idle up they will come back on, done a check on the batteries when idle up its showing 17 + on the metre. any sugestions please

Alternator faulty. It should only be putting out 14.8 volts max.

would that be a fix or a replacment, its taken me 3 years to replace my cylinder head which i didnt find that bad to do just cash flow probs,, so hopfully its quite a straight forward job

If its overcharging surely its the regulator that's broken?

Hi Flyingj,

Have you managed to fix the problem? What was it?

I also have something quite similar. 2 days ago thoses lights went on, but just flashing for half an hour.
Yesterday, they went on for good and don't disappear.

I need to check voltage by running this evening.

Thanks for infos
