Installation & Maintenance Tips
- Disconnect the battery before alternator removal or regulator replacement
- Match the regulator by Bosch manufacturer, A Circuit design, and the 1 pin L M5 post plus M5 bolt D+ layout
- Confirm the mounting footprint, including the 63.5mm mounting points diameter, matches the original regulator
- Inspect brushes, slip rings and rotor condition while the alternator is open and replace worn components as required
- Ensure battery terminals and earth connections are clean and tight to prevent voltage drop and repeat failures
- After installation, verify charging voltage at idle and under load and confirm warning lamp behaviour
