Hiya Guys,
Battery going flat overnight.
Bought and fitted remanufactured alternator today - what a job!!
Started with jump leads,although battery charger had green ok light on.
Took for a short run, switched off and it started fine.
Left for 15 minutes tried to start-battery flat.
Could I have put the alternator connector wiring plug in the wrong way round?
If so-what damage could I have done = anyone have wire colours for connector to which terminal.
Battery has been charged twice (without caps removed to allow gas escape and car has been run with fault till battery flat twice=not by me.
I am helping my wifes friend, to save money on garage bills.
