Most modern alternators are 'intelligent' and only charge when they 'need' to so this could explain it?

if you have had this problem since changing the altenator i would
get it replaced under the warranty as it sounds like it could be faulty,
or did you have this problem before and thats why you fitted a new
altenator ??

Glad it's fixed!nimike wrote:new alternator installed and working. Indeed there was a fault with the alternator, which is all covered under warranty.
