Hello!
back again with another voltage/ charging related issue *sigh*
I have recently had a new alternator as the old one was kaput.
When stationary, the alternator will charge the car more or less no problem, it occasionally takes a few minutes when the engine is cold.
However once i start driving, the voltage quickly drops to below 13 volts, even getting as low as 12v. (see image attached, taken at end of journey)
increasing the RPM doesnt seem to do help.
Car is a '95 Cooper SPI.
I have replaced the battery today with a new one - issue still persists.
I have also added an earth strap from the wok to a nearby chassis nut. - issue still persists
Does anyone know why this might be happening or has anyone experienced anything similar?
Any help greatly appreciated,
Sam
