After much investigation and head scratching the problem has been resolved. The alternator, regulator and battery were fine as were their earths. The problem was tracked down to the ignition feed system and BCL advised (I couldn't drive it far enough to get it to them) that the problem is that the ignition system is overloaded and the problem is resolved by rewiring the ignition feed system so that it runs via relays. They briefed the electrician and after a couple of hours work it was all done. Having been told the solution, I then immediately remembered that a Brigand owner had told me last year about having the same problem which was solved in the same way. If only I could have recalled that a month ago!
