The voltage regulator is inside the alternator.
A bad voltage regulator can cause an overcharging condition. Check the wires going to the regulator for corrosion and make sure the regulator has a good ground.
Yes, if you have a poor regulator ground connection, shorted wires etc. What is the application?
To change the voltage regulator on a 1995 Ford Thunderbird, first you will need to disconnect the battery cables. Then, remove the bolts holding the regulator to the frame of the vehicle and the wires connecting it.
AnswerInside the alternator Dodge voltage regulators are located on the firewall. It is the one with 3 wires.
There is a plate behind the battery and before the fuel tank, where the voltage regulator should be bolted. It is a small, metal rectangular box, with four wires coming from it.
The voltage regulator is inside the alternator. Two wires plug into the alternotor...that is the plug in he sees.
On a 1976 Honda CB400f ? 1 black 1 green 1 white wire Which terminal does each wire go on, on the voltage regulator? ( i downloaded 3 different wiring diagrams for this bike, and each one has the wires in different positions on the regulator :( )
The voltage regulator, or rectifier, is mounted between the radiator and the grill. It sits toward the left side of the ATV (as your sitting on the ATV). It is a thin black box with four, sometimes three, wires coming from it.
The regulator is attached to the wires coming out of the starter / generator, and depending on year, may be integrated into the ignition control module(ICM).
The wiring harness from a typical alternator has three wires. One is for grounding, one is from the battery, and the other is from the voltage regulator. In a GM alternator however, there may be two wires or only one wire. It depends on whether you have an external voltage regulator or not, and if the alternator simply grounds itself to the bracket it's attached to. The best way to find out is to trace the wires to their sources.
a tiny little box on middle of firewall with 2 wires to it and a spring clip, not to be confused with ignition box that is larger, more wires and has a screw holding it on. Regulator is normally a chrome looking or black
