woah! DONT drive it like that. It WILL fry your ECU and whole electrical system. Youve poped a diode from the sounds of it. Replace the altenator NOW but dont drive with it like that. You sure your multimeter isnt reading wrong? havent your headlights / bulbs allready poped?

Jesus, where did you get your alternator from, Sellafield?

Try swapping for a different alternator, you can just send it back if it doesn't cure it.

Have you tried the multimeter on the alternator output or just battery terminals?
