so this all started 2 weeks ago.....
Battery light comes on
Electrics start to fail, lights, speedo, clock etc etc
Engine keeps running fine
Fitted new battery, all ok for 2 days
Battery light comes on again, battery drains and electrics all fail
Charged battery all ok for 3 days
Fails again
Charged and works ok
Take van to garage, but as nothing is failing they can't find a fault
All good for 2 days then sometimes battery light on sometimes not
Today it failed again and all sorts of lights flashed and ticked
I'm thinking
1. Alternator brushes?
2. alternator
3. dodging earthing
Before `i go back to the garage, has anyone had similar and found the problem...its driving me nuts
I have a lovely 2002 T4 1.9
cheers Matt
