Battery charged, alternator taken off and inspected, no obvious damage etc. Alternator back on, connector sprayed with switch cleaner, all back together, additional earth run from battery to Alternator body using a set of jump leads, car started, 11.5v at battery, 11.5v between alternator feed terminal and body of alternator, so can only assume alternator duff.
Two questions:
Why isn't the battery warning light illuminating- is this fed from the alternator diode or something?
Alternator regulator fix sounds interesting - is there any way of checking if this is the issue? Would this explain the charging light not working?
