My haynes manual seems to have gone walkies and i need the details the electrical test as i think my reg/rec has had it.
Battery goes flat when left standing for a couple of days, battery is about a year old but has had very little use. When fully charged voltage across the terminals is 13.5v, when @5k rpm its reading 16.5v.
Leakage test revealed that the reg/rec was leaking 0.11 amps. Zero leakage when reg/rec is removed. Cant remember what the allowance is on the leakage test but im pretty sure 16.5v @ 5k rpm is too high?????
Overcharging and the leakage test is leading me to think the reg/rec has had it but wanna be sire before i order another.
