Installation & Maintenance Tips
- Disconnect the battery before alternator removal or regulator replacement
- Confirm the alternator is Valeo and the regulator plug matches 2 pin L-DFM or 2 pin L-FR (IDL-CPU) with B circuit design
- Inspect brushes and slip rings while the alternator is open, replacing worn components as needed
- 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
- If you are unsure about alternator repairs, have the regulator fitted and tested by a qualified auto electrician
