The alternator will be in on monday and I've already replaced all the bad fuses with the proper replacements. I'll follow your suggestions (with fingers crossed) and let you know the results. Thanks also for the heads up on the alternator rewire "mod." I'm still pretty green when it comes to the SVX so any help is always appreciated. Even in light of my current problems I'm already in love with my car, shes's my baby. I realized just how much I love her now that I'm driving my 98 Jetta again (2.slow engine). I can't really complain. I'm just glad I have a backup car until the SVX is back on the road which will hopefully be soon........

Cheers,

Dave, I forgot to mention that you should not be sorry regarding your lengthy explanation. Without it, I could not have come up with a worthwhile suggestion and the time you took in setting down a proper explanation is much appreciated.
There have been threads using up space, which could have been settled much more promptly, if all followed your approach.

Thanks and cheers to you, as I am at this moment drinking a beer !
