So I got my car running finally!
BUUT.. The battery isn't getting charge?
I had my doubts if it was previously as the gauge sits on 12v not 14v but after letting the car run for an hour tonight to test out the new cooling system (thermos, radiator pump etc) the gauge was sitting on 10V and the starter motor doesn't have the grunt to turn over the motor now and clicks.. So the battery is clearly dead.
The question is why isn't it charging? I've checked and the alternator excite terminal (s) is getting 12V and there's 12v at the batt+ terminal but not 14? Dies this just mean my alternator is buggered?
Alternator is a Bosch Vn type.
Please any help would be fantastic!
