Title: battery wont charge
Post by: monty1704 on May 12, 2011, 05:56:56 PM

hi there its me again lol right my last post was about the coil which i have now done and she is running like a dream but the battery is not being charged now i no it is an alternator problem but i am goin to run the wiring with you and hope some1 can tell me were it rong

I have a live off the battery goin to the startor motor, then a live from the startor motor to the alternator.
is that right ??? or should i run the lives seperatly ???? and what could cause it not to charge ???
