Just noticed the D+ wire on the alternator has snapped at the terminal but the car still seems to be fine.

What does the D+ wire actually do?

Normally the D+ is associated to the charge warning light.

Thanks. I figured as much as there's no battery light showing on the dash but I wondered if it did anything else?

It's slipping down the list of jobs if that's all it does

Without it the alternator may not charge and you might not know until stranded.Steve..
