Best Answer

The voltage regulator in a Volvo alternator has been built into the alternator since the 70's. To replace it, you would have to remove the alternator and disassemble it. Then the regulator can be accessed. It is probably soldered in, so you will need a good soldering gun and the ability to de-solder and solder. It would be quicker and easier to replace the alternator assembly with a remanufactured unit. massvolvoman
