The other day my Freelander developed some issues.
The radio stopped worki and the dippers were very slow.
That night I was on my way to work when a host of warning lights apeard and the dash lighs started to dim as well as my driving lights.
Yes it eventually stopped and wold not restart.
I pushed it to safety with help from a passer by and got a lift to work. I was told at work get a new battery, I thought it was the alternator, anyway.
The next morning I managed to get it started with the use of a power pack. I noticed a thick red wire down by the alternator not connected what had the terminal snapped. I bungeed the power pack to the engine to get me home.
When I got home I reattached the leed, not before getting a nice big spark when it grounded against the alternator.
Now the starter will not spin .
What have I burned out? I'm stumped, any hell would be great.
Thanks for taking the time to read.
