Alternator Light

On passage to Dover the alternator warning light started to flicker and then stayed on.

I stopped the engine and had a look. The wiring connections to the alternator looked a bit tired and frayed. I jiggled them about a bit and tightend the nuts after which the light stayed off when the engine was running.

Once in Dover the connections were re-done and all seems OK.
