Manitou 1030 Woes! Dashboard lit up

[lewisjb]

Hi Guys, Any advice on a manitou 1030s 2-e2 2005. Starts and runs absolutely no problem. However the dashboard is lit up like a Christmas tree with an alarm sounding. Any ideas what would cause this? It's just had a full service, new oils and filters.

We think the alternater belt is a bit loose so will tighten it up. We think the fan belt is loose too, how do you access this?

Have you checked the filters. All seals were on them correctly, etc?

Could just be not charging, slack belt or wires knocked of back of alternator

will be a charging issue, duff alternator or connection somewhere.

Thanks everyone, our fitter said that the lights were all temp related, so have checked the coolant and wether the radiator was sucking air through it. Also checked the battery voltage, 12.1v, and running the voltage dropped to 11.7.

Ordered a new alternator, fan belt and alternater belt from the dealer, we will find out of this works on Monday. I will keep you all posted.

Must be why he’s a fitter, not a mechanic…

Check the alternator fuse and the fuse terminals in the fuse box next to the battery first they like to melt the terminals.

Have you got nothing better to say? Temp related as it could have been the cooler that was blocked up.

Anyway it's been fixed today, turns out the alternator had given up completely. So new alternator and new belts have been fitted. All faults have been cleared, happy days!
