Mend Rover 45 Fitted Battery Charge

electrics goes on rover45?

fitted new battery but runs out of charge

On some vehicles I'm told that the charging bulb - if it blows - can cause this fault. The alternator gets its exciter current from the bulb circuit - it the bulb is blown the alternator does not generate much power.

If the bulb actually lights then it may well be the alternator.

A bulb is much cheaper than a new alternator...
