January 3rd, 2010 03:46 AM #2first of all, is your battery ok? your narration wasn't so clear on this. i used to have a 1999 revo diesel glx. and i never had any problems in my alternator. just the battery getting old.. btw, how old is yours?

revo sr,
i'm a bit surprised your car is a 2004 model and is still using electromechanical voltage regulator. conversion or rather modernization of your voltage regulator is long overdue. it is more reliable, faster response (turns on and off hundreds or thousands of times per second) to regulate your charging voltage, lighter, does not need readjustment. but with your additional loads, you not only need a new V/R but you need to upgrade your alternator output. is there really fog between nueva ecija and manila? just curious

My Toyota 5K engine Alternator has been replace by a Nissan 70 ampere surplus alternator Seven years ago so far i had no problem . I already talk to the auto electrician once the alternator worn out or malfunction tha common cause is IC , Stator and Carbon brush.

ung xtrail, may bearing ang alternator pulley! pag fully charged na ang battery mag-ffree wheeling para di magcharge na ung alternator..
problem ko dito ko province, nagloko ung bearing na un, so di na nagchcharge talaga ung alternator kasi free-wheeling na..and parts will came from manila...kaya sabi ko remedyohan na muna, so pansamantala, pi-nermanent ung bearing para umikot ang rotor ng alternator...pag uwi nalang sa manila papabaklas ko muli para palitan..
di ko kasi sure kung may ic regulator pa alternator ng xtrail...kasi ung pulley na yun acts as regulator din...
most new cars ganyan na, may "clutch bearing" na sa alternator...sa electrical design nalang nagkakaiba...
ps: stock alternator ng xtrail ay 110A pala!

January 3rd, 2010 09:12 AM #6Kung ano po ang original na nkakabit BETTER PO. IC voltage regulator is efficient but if that is not originally installed in your alternator I adviced you to install what is original.
Moreover,dont rely on our filipino auto-electrician workmanship.
At if your regulator will be converted to IC pls pls po, most likely wiring of your alternator will be altered which I am afraid might give U future problem.
To be safe po, put the original parts

sir jick, tnx sa reply...wala naman po fog sa nlex...just to add additional lights para mas maliwanag sa hway...meron po b kau alam na nagpaconvert na revo from voltage to ic regulator? kc baka, carbon lang or diode...or hinang lang problema...pag walang aircon, nagkakarga ung battery...up yo 15-16 amp...pag may aircon, nagkakarga pa rin. pag patay ang aircon at naka on ang headlight, nagkakarga...pero pag pinag sabay na, bumabagsak na ang karga...12 na lng po. ang palo sa voltmeter..

January 6th, 2010 07:53 PM #9Ako din ang problema ko ang alternator ko sa revo ko kasi may sounds set up ako naglagay ako ng dalawang stinger spv69 batteries. Hindi kaya ng alternator natin kaya kailangan ko atang mag palit ng mas mataas ok rewind ng mas malaking wires ng alternator.
