I would think if the flash was at the back of the alternator then the regulator blew from the wrong polarity so i would personally start there. Have you checked the battery voltage with it running? Or tried turning on the consumers in the car to see if they work? There's a place near us that can actually test the alternator for £25 which is always worth a shot. As for the relay, i'm not sure with the combo's but you could always tri it - probably the cheapest option!
