Re: [Mgs] Ignition Light

Not charging.  The alternator plug can't have fallen out or that would stop 
the warning light glowing at all.  Measure the voltage at the brown wire at 
the alternator plug with the ignition off and engine stopped.  If you see 
12v, then the problem is almost certainly inside the alternator.  But if you 
*don't* see 12v then the thick brown charging wire between the alternator 
and solenoid is either broken or disconnected.
