kossie: BINGO!!!!!! thats your fault.

THE ALTERNATOR CANNOT COMMENCE CHARGING WITHOUT A BATTERY LIGHT, IT USES THE BULB IN ORDER TO COMMENCE CHARGING, CONNECT THAT BLUE WIRE UP TO A BULB WITH A SWITCHED LIVE FEED AND ALL YOUR PROBLEMS WILL BE SORTED

Trust me, ask any autoelectrician! Sounds silly i know i thought the same until i learnt about it
