The reg pack can be replaced on this one 74 in the pic and the most common, lets hope it is that, and not expensive

Cool, thanks, I was hoping for a nice clean job in the boot!

Just had a look at WIS, doesn't look like too bad a job anyway.

True the end cover comes off and bingo happy motoring, this fits in with your consumer messages better, good luck

Job done...

but what a mission, really limited access and visibility, made more difficult by me being horizontal but still it can't be an easy job.

Does WIS give an idea how long a job should take? because I've been fiddling about for nearly 3.5 hours! Much less if I had to do it a second time though:lol:

Running voltage now recovered to 13.7 so I'm a happy bunny even if I do have a new battery that I didn't really need.

Thanks again to Cole and TV for your assistance and diagnosis.

You have done well,,, 10 years is OK for the battery
