Just a quick question... I've just jump started my car as the battery was almost completly dead. If i leave the car running at idle will the alternator charge the battery to it's full power or do i have to drive the car or raise and hold the revs up? Also, if leave it at idle, how long do you...

Hi folks Just went to take the car down the road to the local village and noticed that the "alternator warning light" (IE. little red battery symbol) stayed on! EEEK... Checked the belt driving the alternator and that appears OK. Had a look at the battery itself and must admit it took a...

There is a small blue wire to the alternator on my 97 2l 16v - the part of the alternator this connects to has broken off! No warning lights on the dash. Is this for the charging warning light?

Hi, My alternator has given up the ghost....great timing as I now need that on top of 2 new tyres and a cambelt! My question is: I have the 120A output unit, could I fit the 90A version? I've spoken to parts and they think any one of the 70/90/120A versions could have been fitted to my car...
