Check your grounds . I do not know all of the fault codes but a lose ground will cause what you have described..
#scotty# Thanks this. -
Right live and earth cables checked and told it must be the alternator.....
new alternator fitted
new regulator fitted and still no good,at the jump start connector at the back by the batteries I'm getting a reading of 28.2 (so all is good there) and at the positive connection at the front of the cab under the grille it is only 22-24v is there another box that the power cable runs through between the battery and the cab? -
There are six fuses LCM is supplied with,.
On US trucks all six fuses are in fuse panel, but on EU cabovers they may put it deep in dash. So to access them remove four M5 bolts fuse panel is held with and you see LCM and VECU under panel. There is small fuse panel for six fuses there. It is supplied with two red wires. These wires may be connected not well and loose contact. It is common issue of cabovers used in wet climate, in Netherlands for example.
Good luck!
