Shut it u stupid little f**k, what's the point in posting in all my treads being such a c***? Least I can afford a gti180, and to get the cam belt done!

So apparently everyone knows my financial situation? If I wanted a 180 I would have bought a 180 simples Smile

Indeed it is if you're getting only 12V. However that should be with a known-good digital multimeter. Amps will depend on what is switched-on at the time (headlights, charging, ECU's etc)

I just bought a brand new one, and then also required the earth looms, getting some problems from corroded terminals. All good now thanks, running at 14.6v
