It's back feeding into the loom. Stick a diode in the line to the light.

Had the same problem what apbelamy said is true the solution to me was to take a wire from the plus side of the coil with a fuse to the alternator. John

What diode would I need andy. Can I trouble you for a link please

do you have the ignition live wired directly to the battery? all the live feeds need to be switched
switched live feed from the dash light
switched live feed from the ignition
the other charges the battery but should be un able to back feed anything aslong as there switched ( i dont even know if it could anyway)

Sort OT but I had this flat battery thing,

I was playing with mine last night, and I found at 1000rpm idling it was not charging when I was 1500rpm it would start charging. Now as every thing in my car is electric this would explain a lot of problems I was having.

Nothing is impossible it just costs more and takes longer.

i have posted a amp output vs rpm graph some where for the 40 amp alt

this is the 40 amp alt i enquired when i bought( it came with this graph) it the 40amp rating is at typical engine speeds

There is 3 pins one is not needed one is swiched live and is for the light.

Off the top of my head the middle one is the live one.

Then the bottom for the light and the bolt for the browns (charge)

yopu need to spin these little fuckers hard! max rpm on them is 16k!

diode wise, anything will do just pick somthing with thick leads that you can solder to, an IN5401,IN5402 etc should be a good bet (higher the last no the higher voltage rating the 1 is 50v)

Right im defantly wired right so il get this diode sorted and try that

Cheers all
