[QUOTE="krombone, post: 797826, member: 42200"] Hi, I see that a few posts have been made about alternators / battery and I have read through them and tried all the advice. Randomly the car stopped charging. I checked the voltage on the alternator and it was only putting out 12.V maybe that was just the battery. The voltmeter on the dash always reads 14+ and now, the same problem it's down to basically 0. So I swapped the alternator out, and it still won't start, even on jump leads. Voltmeter shows voltage but won't jump. Put a new earth cable on and cleaned the area to ensure good earths. Checked the small alternator fuse... All good. Rolled the car down a hill and bump started it, it lasted about 3 seconds and the voltage went pretty much straight to 0 I'm genuinely at a loss now and have no idea what to do :( [/QUOTE]
