Battery case fuse box problem
« on: 01 March 2015, 20:39 »
Had a bit of a nightmare last week with car loosing battery whilst driving.

After a good sweep found this below, it's the alternator fuse, odd because the alternator is fine as is the battery, any suggestions?



Going to get new fuse box and maybe alternator just to be sure, let you all know if I find out more.

Usually the cable to the alternator is the culprit

Scott,

I shouldnt say this as I want to keep it for myself  :grin:

I was up in all parts in bonnybridge last weekend. There are some clean fuse holder trays things on some of the vw/audi's up there this now if that helps.
