Right this thing been a pain in the arse. Tested it today
Battery with engine not runnin 12.35 Volts
Battery with engine runnin 12.6 - 12.7 at 1000 rpm
Battery with engine runnin at 1000 rpm with lights and headunit on. 12.0 
Battery with engine runnin at 1500 rpm. A nice 13.9 Volts.
This sound like a Alt prob. or crappy contact's ?. Or a Crappy Ph2 rust prob  |

alt's dodgy.
Contacts would be there all the time, also the spike from 12.6 to 14V will not be doing the ECU much good at all. |

And the Boke who work at Ren said it was fine. Mind you. He is a Gearbox person, and not into all this wiring crap. |

so an alt thats producing 12v at idle then 14V at 1500 is ok? Hes not very clever.
TBH I am surprised its not stalling the engine with that spike to the ECU.
But if you think its fine leave it. I'll say I told you so when something catches fire/melts/blows |
