  1. You were right bad earths not the alternator hopefully JK will take it back still in the box with all the packaging
     
  2. He's running....arked across the starter and it tried to turn over, set up the dizzy and he started, went to the fuel station broke down, jumped him off and limped home, tightend all earth straps and found the alternator strap to be slightly loose so tightened it and all seems well.....for now...
     
    paradox, Valveandy and Barneyrubble like this.
  3. Still got an issue...
    Changed the battery and gearbox earthstraps last night just to make sure they were good and decided to have a drive out today, everything was fine then all of a sudden the stereo cut off then back on again and the idicator light stopped flashing when we turned into a fuel station, fueled up and tried to start it, nothing...
    Linked up the leisure battery and it started and drove home fine!

    Are there any other things I should be checking? Other earth straps?
    Leisure battery seems to be charging ok but main battery isn't!

    Think im going to get the main battery checked again but im lost again!
     
  4. Somewhere...there's a poor connection to your main battery. Connected securely at the back of the starter? Main feed to front of van hanging by a thread?
