Been in Benidorm this week (lucky me eh!). Anyhow, back to reality ordered a new regulator from DMGRS this week and just fitted it this afternoon. Hands and feet are numb now.
The battery light is now mostly very dim, sometimes not on at all and sometimes fully lit. Previously the battery voltage was continually slowly dropping away, but it is now constantly holding above 14V. The car starts fine everytime, even with continual stopping and starting it on the drive. I've checked and cleaned the wiring from the terminal on the alternator, back to the starter, and then back to the battery terminal. Is there a connection I may have missed? All of the fuses are also fine, going to take it for a 30ish mile run tomorrow (which should be enough to show if the alternator is not doing its job). I'll take a spare battery in the boot just in case
