The battery when ticking over is reading 12.5v

Altanator is12.8v

New to this volt meter set to 20VDC?
As already said the voltage is too low at the alternator, should be 13.5v-14v+

This has got to be the winner!?
Yeah new wiring needed Rog, that ebay link is not the correct wiring, that's the starter to batter wiring, you need new alternator wiring, easy enough to make up your self with fresh wire and connectors mate.
