Dangleberries
« on: 17 January 2014, 17:33:32 »

So I'm sat on the side of the road waiting for a the breakdown service.

I took the Omega out for it's first run out in 9 months and the battery light came on! I was out in the sticks and luckily managed to nurse her into civilisation.

I'm hoping the battery has walked itself rather than the alternator!

Looks like it is the alternator as when the breakdown guy arrived we checked with his meter and the voltage was about 11.4v and dropping.....  :( 

Anyway he got me home OK and the battery is now charging.  ::)

PM sent Twiglet!  :)
