Well this isn't going well at all.

Incorrect part again. That's two on the trot.

Dealer has ordered a bin check at Luton. Can't tell how long that will take. Can't order a new part until the bin check is complete.

Customer services say they are looking into it, should hear from them within 48 hours. Part should arrive by the end of the week.

Great.

Chris, do you need a loan car until the parts turn up?

All sorted. Massive thanks to Kevin Wood, gave me his refurbished one and took the old one off me for some interrogation.

All back together, road tested, and having tea and beer.

I must have been tired when I took it off the car, I really struggled. It all went back together much easier this time.

Dragged the top bolt through the hole with a magnet on a stick btw. :y

Old one tested and exhibits square root of naff all output.  ;D

Windings intact, rectifier OK and everything visually good so looks like another regulator required.

Bearings a bit noisy so will swap them while I'm at it.

Well, it did say to Kevin in a hurt sounding whine that you had been very rough with it when you dragged it from it's home, unfortunately he misinterpreted it as rough sounding bearings ;D

Nope. Dead.

Not resting.
Not stunned.
Not even pining for the fjords.
I know a dead alternator when I see one and I'm lookin' at one right now. ;D
