larry,

excellent metaphore used to explain amperage and voltage.. couldn't be better than this...

my mech also says that the voltage regulator brush is actually located on the alternator itself.... definitely takin' it out and changing it is gonna be a pain ....

however, the is still a current leak... my mech disconnected the batt terminals when the car engine is dead and stationary... and put through a simple wire with a Bulb to it between the connectors and the batt terminals, '-ve' side of it i think, and the Bulb lights up very brightly.. so there's something which is draining the batt heavily.... errrmmm... any ideas?

ohh .. btw the way, i failed to locate the Overvoltage relay, checked the ECU compartment and did not find any relay, checked other forums that it is silver in colour, but couldn't find any....
