Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

4 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi guys have noticed the volt meter is moving around at tickover, thinking it might be a loose belt. Moving between 13 and 14 volts goes up to 14 normal running. Any other suggestions also can the diode pack be bought separately or does it mean complete alternator. thanks in advance. Steve

POST 2Original post

If the belt is loose it means either a pulley is collapsed or tensioner is stuffed, loose belt would make a noise usually. Voltage regulator is a common issue. Alternator needs to come out to change it. It's a £25 part for a good non Chinese one. Alternator not a difficult job, you just need to press out a bush a small bit so it goes back into the frame easily. DONT SMACK IT WITH HAMMER which is suggested on line sometimes. Plenty of info on here.

POST 3Original post

Ignore the cluster gauge .. you need a volt meter on the battery to prove there is an issue . Check the voltage on idle with nothing turned on .. no loads in other words .. Them do the same check but with all loads turned on .. so main beam , heated seats , hazards etc etc Full load and it needs to be above 13 volts to prove the alternator / main lead is ok . Post results if needed .

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks guys will let you know the results of the check.
