Got 100 yards yesterday early morning when all the lights came on on the dash - not flickering, but solid on and didn't go ff. Decided sod it and carried on going - 30 minutes drive in the dark, and 30 minutes back again in the dark, and only just made it home
Anyway, I've checked all the cables I can find and these seem fine so been trying to get the bloody plug out the back of the alternator, but can get enough leverage with the a/c pump in the way. Is there any way to remove the a/c pump without letting all the gas out?
Any other suggestions/tips? If I can get the plug out and clean it and that doesn't fit it my next step was to take the whole alternator off and strip it down and rebuild to see if that fixes it.
