Re: Mystery wire

I seem to recall he cut the old roof off completely then welded a complete AFT roof with its double skin into place, but as I recall (it was around 2018) he got Karl Chadwick to sort out the wiring in the end as large parts of the loom wiring weren't present and needed adding, which probably ...

Re: Mystery wire

I have always suspected that the changeovers from one manual to the next were never as exactly matched on the production line! I suspect they continued to use old looms and things until they ran out and switched what was on the given line (there were most likely more than one lines as well!) so the ...

Re: Mystery wire

Re: Can you share a photo of your alternator - this wires ???

But you haven't told us which engine you have, it varies between diesel and petrol and also by year of van as parts have changed over the years.
It sounds like you have a faulty alternator regulator as one possibility.
