Title: Battery case fuse box problem
Post by: Scott-R 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
