Sounds like the regulator/rectifier is knackered.

If the voltage stays around 12 volts or even lower it should back this up.
I've been having a similar problem with battery, charging to keep it going.
So here's the idiot Qs;
Where do I find the reg/rect and how much would it cost to replace?
Or where could I find one from?

Ta, bokki
