Rebuilding alternator? Have quick look at pics please Sat, 22 May 2004 23:28 Go to previous message
My dad got a new alternator put in his townace van (toyota) at a cost of $380 Shocked .
The auto electrician reckoned that you couldn't rebuild the old one. The new one is making heaps of radio interference and he's called them and complained but they don't seem to interested. I have the old one sitting here and was thinking of putting new brushes in it (If that is the problem).

- Anybody know an auto electrician in the nthn beaches or western sydney that could provide new brushes or do the rebuild. Smile

I was going to fix this one, wack it in and then demand some money back for the new shitty one currently in his van. They didn't even tighten up one of the connections properly, we lifted the seat to have a look (as charge light was flickering), and when you revved it sparks were occuring Surprised


I suppose it may not be the brushes, does anyone know how to check the regulator etc. I'll have to do some reading. I found this sight, the townace alternator looks pretty similar, most alternators you should be able to rebuild right?
