Broken down mk2 ZT M90 northbound near Dunfermline

Ravinder · 25th July 2017, 19:56

Just before the Kirkcaldy/Glenrothes slip northbound. Bonnet was up and guy was underneath it. Nothing too serious, I hope. Around 6:45pm.

Was it blue?

Ravinder · 25th July 2017, 21:16

It was, yes.

Tam · 25th July 2017, 21:39

Hmmmm! Wonder if this might have something to do with it!

Was it you? Yesterday evening? I beeped when I drove pass.

Yep was ME! I've waited blooming ages to be spotted by you Rav and you catch me with the bonnet up

Turned out to be more of a pit stop as I kinda predicted I might run out of voltage on way home. The alternator gave up it's duties just 15 mile short of the border. So carried on to Berwick Upon Tweed and bought a battery from Kwik Fit and basically just turned around and headed home. Unfortunately getting through Edinburgh at 5 pm is pretty stressful and I was fully clenched travelling across the Bridge!! Eventually it went into to limp mode just before you saw me.
No hazards as no power. But it was a quick battery swap and on my way again thankfully.
I heard a toot but didn't even look up to see
