Battery loose cut out now battery light on

Postby apples26 » Sat Mar 17, 2018 6:00 pm

Bloody bus

Old 01 tourneo but I love it

Driving along cut out

Found battery terminal loose it restarted now battery light on and no charging voltage at terminals

Checked fuses

So has alternator died?

I did have clutch recently fitted where’s the earth cable located that goes to it???


Mind you I imagine I’d have other issues if it was that

If it was running with a disconnected battery, even for a short while, you may have blown the diode pack in the alternator :idea:

1997 Mk5 SWB 115 Minibus 70ps Di (Gone, but not forgotten!)
