Defo check the fuse rating. Somebodies car on here had a 15 amp main fuse in it when it should have been a 30amp
Apparently they only found out whilst driving home in the dark with it pi$$ing down when the full beam was on
I am reliably informed that they were a bit cheesed off

Check the charge wire, its best taken back directly to the positive terminal on the battery, you might find its overcharging otherwise, due to a poor
connection.
same symptoms as having a knackered reg/rec, stick a multimeter on the battery to check whilst revving the engine, mine was hitting 20v+ until i wired
it direct to the battery. Got all the way to Donnington from Leeds before it cooked the battery, but it had blown fuses for a while beforehand.

Fuse update
Hi
Guys
i have unplugged the fan switch and shorted the plugs to see if it still blows fuses and it did 10A
so i stripped back the wiring and put a fuse inline and it blew the fuse put another fuse back 10A in and i cant get it to blow the fuse again
so it looks like it might have an intermittent fault with the fan.
unless any body has any other ideas
Thanks Chris
