Fan drawing 2v and engaging battery warning light
Discussion
We replaced the battery and alternator a couple of days ago as the battery was not keeping a full charge and the alternator was only putting out 11v. Now that both items are replaced the battery is maintaining 12.6v and when the engine is running with lights/aircon/radiometer on the charge increases to 14.3v with the alternator.
However, when the fan comes on the voltage at the battery drops to 12.3v.
Any ideas on what could be causing this? The vehicle is a Jeep Patriot CRD which hasthe same engine as the VW BKD PD 140
Cheers
