can anyone help me with this?

ive just been at the fuel station after getting my car out,had a very steady drive there due to 2flat tyres,left the car running while pumping the tyres up,and the radio went off and all the lights went dim,so i proceeded to batter it home so i didnt have to leave it in fuel stsion,as soon as i put me toe in,the radio came back on and the lights went back up to full power.

i had a wire off the back of the alternator a few weeks ago that caused it to die on me,i cant see now its too dark but i presume this wire is coming off again,i.e a bad connection so wen i put me foot down it sent enough current down to power everything up again?

can i replace this wire or shall i just tighten it up with grips? im pretty sure its a spade connection,its never done it before just the past two times ive had car out,so is their a underlying problem?

cheers for any help

 

bump

 

Just crip the spade connector together so that its a tight fit.

 

it had to have a new fucking alternator the heap,2nd one in 6months

 

whats killing them so quick then??? not good

 

fuck knows,hoping it was a mega dodgy alternator,good jod sdl was shut cos they supplied it,its been used twiced since i put it on,i was ready to throw it at em,its fell apart once since it was on.

 

Don't sound goot that, sounds like the voltage regulator on the alt is fooked, not the alt itself though!

 

either way its in the bin
