carefully read and study the wiring diagrams, and be certain there is nothing connected wrong...good luck everyone should have a manual for their vehicle, and the library should have a professional manual available...in the reference section, you'll have to make copies of the important sections...good luck :)
To test the alternator if funds are low, let the motor idle and remove the negative battery cable, if the motor dies its probably the alternator.
Check the fan motor itself. It may be shorting enough to cause it to run hot. the smell may by from the motor itself.
On the 250 cid engine the alternator lives on the passenger side front of the engine.
well my friend, your windshield wipers work off of an electric motor powered by your battery which is charged by the alternator, hope this makes sense to you, if wipers arent working it may be a fuse or the electric motor. if your alternator belt is not on or your alternator isn't working your battery will bo dead pretty quick and your car wont start at all. hope i helped sharris@maplenet.net if you have any car questions
Is the motor the same? Do they both have A/C or no A/C?
Check your connection. Make sure they are clean and tight. Especially your ground. Check it at the battery, alternator, motor, and frame. When you replaced that alternator, there was the heavy wire that connects to the bottom of the alternator via a nut. This connection has a rubber boot to protect it from shorting out because there's very little room around it when it's mounted in place. Check that this connection/wire isn't shorting out in that area.
A 351 Windsor will pretty much drop into any Galaxie that was originally equipped with a 289 or 302 motor.
If you are careful and do not let the positive cable to the alternator come in contact with the motor or frame, nothing will happen. It is just a lot easier and safer to disconnect the positive cable from the battery. It saves possibly shorting out the cable and possible ruining the battery.
Shorting the motor's electrical supply will blow the fuse and the motor will run down and stop.
What is a brush and how many of them are there in a alternator of a motor vehicle?
The generator motor works as the starter motor AND the alternator.
Yes, almost every part for the big block fords are interchangable (with the exception of the crank and pistons of course).
With a synchronous motor shorting the slip-rings together should make it work as an induction motor although perhaps not to an optimal degree.
This happened to me on a 1986 cutlass 2.5. A wire was shorting out going to the map sensor and only did it in reverse. The bracket on the alternator had rubbed a hole and only grounded when the motor moved, when placed in reverse. I fixed it temporary with electrical tape.
The Ford Galaxie was the first full-size car produced by the Ford Motor Company. It was produced between the years 1959 to 1974. Some of the names were the Club Sedan and the Town Victoria.
a motor is a generator and a generator is a motor, if you are applying a voltage to turn the rotor its a motor and if you are turning the rotor and taking the voltage off the terminals its a generator or alternator.
can Hysteresis motor use like alternator
