    Thin cable excites the alternator to make a change. So light should be on with ignition. Once running the charge should turn out the light. Make sure little cable goes on little connector. The 2 large lugs are joined

    Or keep it under the boot floor, around the spare wheel. If you make sure you double lock the car every time, the only way in is through a broken window, and accessing the under boot floor without the rear hatch open is basically impossible...

    Doubt you fried it but you could have jammed it in gear. Try putting it in gear say 3rd high with ignition off and rock the truck back and fore. Given it's a Landy you may need a couple of mates to help do this.

    Throw up some pictures as it may help. I am not familiar with the new gearboxes. But the older ones had a couple of small earth cables for the difflock switch’s etc. and also has reverse switch wiring as well.

    So warning light is on with ign on but engine not running? Then when you start the engine the warning light stays on? Sure the warning light wire is on the correct terminal? pic of the back of the alt might help someone pinpoint your issue.

    I don't know your car, but on Volvo's it was the sort of ratchet mechanism that advanced the counter getting gummed up that stopped it working. A wash out with contact cleaner followed by a little clock oil sometimes fixed the problem.

    Based on my own experience ('87 3.5efi) failure of the odometer is a prelude to the speedo itself developing a very 'wavy' needle, which will result in MOT failure when the time comes. I've attempted to have mine repaired but the specialist was...
