Help please Ford techs
Hi people my friends battery light has just come on there 2ltr diesel Ford Kuga.Ive been to have a look at it and when you start the engine the voltage is about 12.50 and rises to 13.50 volts.If the engine is reved the voltage goes to about 14v then drops off.Ive check the voltage from the back of the aternator so I know the wire to the battery is ok.
I take it its a faulty alternator.

Right thanks for this. I was gonna pull the 3pin plug off too.
Ive changed loads of the small looms on tranny connects cause the wires snap due to them rubbing in the plastic shroud.

Glenn, on the Kuga, is the battery light on all the time once you start it, or does it go off then come back on after a few seconds? If it goes off and comes on after 20-25ish secs , it points to a fault in the smart charge circuit.
On the old Kas they had a fuse for smart charge above the fusebox that was easy to miss.. Might be worth checking all the fuses at least!
Haven't seen any probs with the Kuga ones yet but first time for everything!
