Alternator Question V70-XC70

Sorry guys - didn't mean to ignore your messages. I think you are both onto something with the diodes - and my approach that "it is always the voltage regulator" bit me in this instance. Had it tested at two different shops because I was wary of the result. The second guy felt so bad for me he knocked 10% off, and now i have a spare voltage regulator on the shelf and a rebuilt alternator into the car.

Auto electronics are not my strong suit - so I appreciate the fellow brickboarders showing me the way!
