Hi the engine light has come on
My 24v after charging the battery the book says it’s the fuel cutout been triggered and to reset it,done that the light is still on but if I rev it up goes off then back on as revs die down ,like it’s a alternator light not charging anyone else come across this.

Simple things first check you drive belts

2nd check the voltage at the battery with the engine running, should be 14.5v

AS above check voltage,is the alternator covered in oil

There may be some oil and wax oil on it

lets hope the front rocker cover has,nt leaked into the alternator windings,engine light
usually means alternator weak or belts slipping

Checked belts ok charge to battery was 12v and gauge on dashboard had hardly moved so think the oil’s on alternator have goosed it,new one it looks like.

Hi had a look at how to remove the alternator from my 24v m reg probe,can I remove it with out moving the air compressor or is it better to remove the radiator to take it out.

Easy way remove the radiator,saves your knuckles and a few choice swear words Trust me
Worth it in the end

Cheers it looks the best way,but rocker gaskets will have to be done first or I’ll have same problem again ,thanks Cpt for your help.
