Horrible and depressing problem. Please help! 700


UPDATE:

Thanks for all of the suggestions regarding the problem :)

I have managed to fit a replacement alternator (20 minutes' work) and will find out whether or not it has cured the fault when the battery is recharged and refitted.

From what I saw on the AA patrol's test meter when it was connected to the battery with the engine running, it would indicate that the old alternator was indeed kaput; The voltage shown ranged from 11.89 to 11.90 which is is pretty damning evidence...

Wish me luck!
