Fit another one anyway. Halfords sell a good lead for a few quid

Its loosing its 12v to the alternator sense wire! Get somebody to wiggle to loom from the T£"T block below the expansion bottle across the front of the car to the alternator and watch the battery light. Just going to be a crap connection or a broken wire.

Does anybody have any pictures to show where the earth straps are, ive just took my engine out, im sure i only had one going from gearbox to passenger side of the inner wing. I had weird electrical faults on my car:cry::crap:
