every time i go off road and theres water involved my alternator stops charging this will be my third, is this a common prob and is there a diy repair i could try on alternator as it is getting expensive :?  :?

martha focker:
don't go in water :lol:

ill get my coat :lol:

Range Rover Blues:
What car is it on? I'm asking because it soundsl ike you need to stop water splashing the alternator.  Either that or the fault could be somewhere else, like an electrical short.

its on a defender 200 tdi, i have been thinking about fabricating some kind of splash gaurd to protect it, an electrical short is a poss as it has a slow drain on the battery,ie if i leave it for a week or so without disconecting battery its totaly dead. thanks for the reply, Iain

Hangover:
Try tapping it with a hammer as sometimes the brushes stick.
