Title: Possible OOF Assistance Request
Post by: Lazydocker on 23 March 2016, 22:39:51
Basically, mother has got a Pug 206 1.4 and may have an alternator fault... I'm diagnosing by phone at the moment. Her mechanic has broken his arm so is out of action.

Before I do the 450 mile round trip next week to sort it, is there anyone near Richmond, North Yorkshire, who might be able to help?

TIA :y

If you can't find anyone on OOF then I know a few people up that way who might know another decent mechanic.

TIA :y  I will be near there but not whilst Sunday or Monday, & I surmise she will need fixing up before then. I have a contraption that I bought in Germany when clamped to the battery with engine running tells me if their is a fault with alternator

Cheers. With some telephone diagnosis it seems likely to just be a battery... Alternator sat at 14V after starting.

New battery first, which she can get done ok, and then test again :y
