Cooked alternator

I hoped this would be the case Phil, but it has a dreadfull burnt electical smell which is not a good sign

Is it still charging (what is the voltage when the engine is running)?

Good news is new Alternators are relatively cheap for 22R:
$165 on Ebay

Thanks for that Phil, thats the great thing about this site somebody always knows.
The light is on. I was geting it ready for sale with some regets as it has been the most reliable vehicle I have ever owned. This is its payback for abandonding her for a flashier newer model.lol

Hi Steve,
Finished up buying a 3.5 Jack SE with 101000ks. All log book services, air , bbar, tbar, 10 stacker, in very good condition.
Not entirely happy with the seats and suspension, but that will give me something to play with. I am trying to find out if the restrictors have already been taken out as it goes like the clappers. We have territorys at work and it would give them a run for their money.
Covered 400ks in 4 hours and used 53lts fuel which I think is not bad considering the performance on tap. It is a 5 speed manual and had also been rust proofed. What impressed with the motor is their is plenty of power from idle to 6000rpm.
On another subject drove a d4d dcab hilux yesterday in the rain, holy hell do they have some grunt kept getting wheelspin in 2nd gear on wet tar lol
Cheers Pete
