T4 1.9 TD. If I use a volt meter and conect across the battery terminals I get just over 11 volts. If I connect from the heavy terminal on the alternator and then to earth I get nearly 15 volts. I am supposing that the alternator is fine but there is a fault in the wiring. Am I correct? Any help appreciated. This has been an ongoing problem so I am getting somewhat pee'd off now. I need to/will get to Seaton Ross for the easter weekend and would prefer to get back as well!
BTW, a 5 mile run did nothing for the charge in the battery.

Is the alternator cable conected to the battery feed to the starter solenoid.. could be dissconnected or corroded... (I'm assuming it is wired the same as most other vehicles...)
