    Hi the wire runs from the alternator to a 2-pin connector, near the starter,and to pin 1 on an 11-pin connector, (white), on left of the bulkhead ,from there to pin 9 on an 18-pin connector, (brown) on the OB supply unit.

    Hi Kenney, could you tell me whereabouts the OB Unit is. I have managed to find a broken wire under the starter and have joined that. All was good the battery light came on and the car started and charged. Turned it off and then back on and no battery light. After a few turns of the ignition it appeared again. Switched off and it then took another few clicks of the ignition before it came back on again... WEird i have to say.

    I have a wiring diagram, thanks Crasher however that does not show me where the wiring goes after connection 27 on the diagram.

    Any help guys would be appreciated. I thought i was there and i nearly could be.

    Thanks.....

    Between the On Board Power supply and the dash the light is CAN BUS controlled.

    Thanks Crasher. Do you know whereabouts behind the dash the OB supply is located. I can run a test from it then. Is it possible that supply will make the light intermittent.

    It is directly above your right foot, clip lying horizontal, into the wiring, fuse, relay etc carrier. A fault code read of the system would make sense.

    The system only shows the one fault code which is p1503 Load signal from Alternator Term. DF Range/performance/Incorrect Signal

    States that it has an implausable signal.

    Thanks for that info.

    I appreciate it's been a few years - trying to resolve a similar issue myself - did you get it fixed and if so, can you remember what it was?
