Blanco Posted February 8, 2019 Share Posted February 8, 2019 If I remember it is about halfway down on the left as you stand at the open bonnet. The alternator is a combination unit and quite expensive to replace new, search on here for regulator replacement which is straightforward DIY, and very cheap by comparison, fixes 95% of problems.

bear Posted February 8, 2019 Share Posted February 8, 2019 The front part of the unit is actually the brake vacum pump and can be removed so you only have to replace the alternator itself. An example is here https://www.lrdirect.com/ERR6999-Alternator-Assy/ HTH, Griff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
