The dreaded beep
followed by "Alternator Fail" on LCD display. Goes out after a second or two, comes back on a after a minute or two, repeats with gradually increasing frequency, usually accompanied with red battery symbol on dash.
Take it to garage (I'm new to the area, but they seem OK) to have it fixed. They replace the alternator, which is not what I would do, and it doesn't fix the problem (surprise, surprise!). I suggest loose auxiliary belt but they say it definitely isn't that.
You know what's coming next - any suggestions? - wiring diagram?
Christmas is coming up and I've got grandchildren to visit
