EA has a internal regulator. that is the black box on the back of the alternator. Was this changed over with the alternator? or transfered from old one?

most probably a dead battery.

thanks for your help guys! it'll start charging around 50kmh no matter the rev it is. go for a long drive, at least 1 hr or depending on how drained it is. alot of stop & go, short drives can drain your battery, it'll still charge but not to its full capacity.

it should charge at idle unless the battery is not fully charged or it's stuffed.
