I replaced the alternator with a new part and the part was substandard (could not handle AC and head lights at the same time, even though rated for 140 Amps). I returned it and bought another one (also 140A), this time it was re-manufactured. This next one was better, but worse than the factory part. I researched the market and found that only junk Chinese parts were available (Napa, O’Reilly, etc). Decided to get my original alternator (90A) rebuilt. This cost more, but now it works better than it did when it new (~100-110A). I reported this to two different Govt agencies (about the misrepresented current ratings, and replacement part not safe/ working). Nether to date, have contacted me or acknowledged my reports... |
