Battery was replaced in Feb after it was flat and wouldn't turn over.
Gone flat again. Now, it's got the electrics pack (Blaupunkt SatNav, etc) and we had the doors open while cleaning it, headlights on a bit by accident and now it won't start.
So - is it the alternator? My first guess is but other have said might be starter motor being worn needing a bigger kick to start it. Battery is a nightmare to get to but i'm guessing I better get a multimeter to test to see how it's charging.
is alternator replacement a DIY job for someone hopeless like me? where's cheapest?
