    Refurnished alternators karamihan ng outlet stores. What they do is change the brush and bearings with new ones then assemble it back. Sometimes the voltage regulator is also changed.

    Sayang naman kung bibili ka ng new alternator na saksakan ng mahal, kadalsan 1 or 2 parts lang ang may sira.

    mga pare i already brought my ride to a battery shop they said mahina daw charging ng alternator ko. 2 shops pinuntahan ko and they said the same thing. so does this mean pwedeng i-repair na lang alternator ko instead of buying a surplus one? thanks.

    btw, san po exact location ng tower of david sa espana? thanks again!

    If you decide to have the alternator repaired, better allot on whole day or sometimes half day (if you get lucky) to get it fixed.

    Tower of David Espanya branch is at the corner of Maceda St. You won't miss it, Motolite and other shops share the same compound.

    ano ba yung ride mo? meron mga considerations kasi yan. Baka nga mahina lang battery o dapat paltan. Have a battery shop (2 or 3) check kung nagcha-charge pa yung alternator mo. Kung hindi na all the shops will show you this. Kung nag cha-charge pa then look kung ilan volts pa pumapasok sa battery mo. Pag mahina na then they will have to overhaul your alternator. Sa Rey's sa Tuazon(Marikina) 450 ang labor then you have to pay for the carbon brushes and bearings (which is better to replace). Di kasama dyan kung sira yung mga rectifiers coz alternators produce AC current and the rectifiers convert this to DC. How many amps ba yung alternator mo? The other day I asked, yung 85 amps nila is around 6800. But that's for an alternator with the pump sa likod. Kung gas ang rig mo then normally walang pump sa likod. HTH!
    how many volts ba dapat ang kinakarga ng alternator sa baterya?
    10-12 volts?
