What is the function of the brush holder in the alternator?
The brush holder in an alternator keeps the brushes held to slip rings with spring pressure (or commutators in generators or some motors) which provide electrical contact to electromagnets in the spinning rotor. By varying the electrical current through the brushes to the rotor magnets, you can adjust the power output of the alternator as needed.

VW and Volvo have removable brush holders that unscrew from back of alternator Gm Ford and Mopar, you may have to split alternator to change brushes, there is often a small hole in back of alternator where you can use a piece of wire to keep brushes compressed when you put alternator back together easy job ... save your money
