Hi All
my battery light stops on when my engine starts but goes out when i rev the engine?
i have checked the battery and there seems to be no different on the volts ? im i have put a volt meter on the lead going into the fuse box from the alternator and that seems to be 14 volts.
is this normal? or should the voltage change when the engines running?

The fact you,ve got 14 volts when the engine is running, means the your alternator is charging. If you put your meter across the battery terminals you will see the reading will be lower with the engine switched off.
 
thats just it it doesnt seem to be any difference? the reading i got was from the lead coming from the alternator to the fues box?
the batterys not showing anything other than 12 .2 volts
 
Check each side of fusible link FL1(150A - first left of the red wire) ...u have to find the 14V from the brown wire on the red wire too(C0632)...that red wire is going to the battery so if u have voltage at the fusebox and non at the battery it means is interrupted.
