Measure the voltage across the battery with a meter, while the engine is running. The fault code is only flagged if the voltage is greater than 16v.

Usually means the regulator pack in the alternator has failed.

How to fix it?? New alternator time.

Yep, looks like a new alternator is needed. Any idea what amp my currant one is? It's for a C20LET with air con.
Will it say the amp rating somewhere on the alternator?
