- Inspect brushes and slip rings while the alternator is open and replace worn components where required
- Ensure battery terminals and earth connections are clean and tight to prevent voltage drop and repeat failures
- After installation, verify charging voltage 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
