You could have posted this in your original topic mate.
I posted on that one before I saw this one. Now I feel aggrieved that I wasted my time posting on your first question when you already knew the answer :roll: .

If you unplugged your blower and now your car starts and charges properly I would suspect that it is your culprit.
The blower switch is still in and plugged in I assume ?
As you modifiy car switches with leds, presumably you've got a multimeter. Use that to check for a short from the blower switch.
If that is ok then put a new(er) blower in.
If you start loosing charge again, its something else :twisted:
