If it starts doing bulbs then I can pretty easily get a std reg and whack that in, so long as it doesnt damage anything more expensive![Wink](https://passionford.com/forum/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif)
Should have checked to see what I get with the other electrics on really - will do this tomorrow![Grin](https://passionford.com/forum/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif)

14.5 volts will NOT blow bulbs whatsoever, some batteries ie CALCIUM/CALCIUM need a MINIMUM of 14.6 to operate properly/at it's best, though the lower rates on std battery alternators will do no harm to a calcium, you could use a less expensive std type battery, a some vaux's are up to 15.9 that I have measured, this is why with Calcium, you must NEVER put a std battery on where it was calcium originally, as the slightly higher charge rates will kill the new battery.
It's a good idea to rewire the pump circuit, pity you have ruined ALL the effort by using relay in the spare wheel well, where all connections are subject to moisture.
If you were looking for the worst place to put it, it would be there where it is.

Tabetha you do spout shite sometimes.
I have not ruined all the effort at all. If the wheel well was the worst place in the world then why would Ford have put the inertia switch there?
It's a shame there isn't a duct long enough to plumb all your hot air into my boot - that should keep it nice and dry.
