I would like to know what codes are set in the ECU, can you get a scan done when it fails and post any set codes?

Hi just a quick one are you able to do a test on a ECU and on a alternator because I think it might be the alternator that could be causing the problem can it reset its self thank you joe

You can't test ECU's your self, there are speclist techs that can do this, the alternator should have around 13.6V -14.6 there abouts at the main terminal running at fast idle this will depend on load and battery condition.

Thank you very much for that I think I might have solved the problem in it because when I bought it the battery was not strong in it and it gay to be replaced and it kept cutting out like my taxi meter thank you joe
