ALTERNATOR. Repair or replace?

At rest a fully charged battery has 12.6 volts. It takes at least the battery voltage from the alternator to extinguish the charge warning light but it takes 13 to 15.1 volts for the alternator to recharge the battery. What chariot do you have?

In that sequence. Not to remove nor tear any component to verify if they work or if they work properly or not. Always perform the least intrusive, cost effective and least inconvenient approach

our wigo's alternator conked out, shortly after the 3 year warranty period. it had not been raining that week.
we had it fixed at yock's, and after over 4 years, it's still fine.

so, is it water resistant?
i don't know.

Obsolescence at it's best.

Splash resistant ang alternator usually IP65

Yung magnet wire ay laminated, bearings are double insulated, commutator is semi-sealed, rectifier and regulator are hermetically sealed but not the connections. Prolonged breach of flood water could damage those parts.

Usual nasisira ay regulator/rectifier, and if walang New Era replacement, better replace the whole assembly with Taiwan replacement.

Yacks, yan ba yung sa may Kitanlad corner Banawe, Doc? I didn't know they fixed alternators.
Dati sa amin, pag sira electrical, we go to Rico's near A.Bonifacio Ave.
