Are the alternator brushes old? When they get worn shorter that 5mm, funny things can happen. The labor is the same to check them or to replace them.

A new integrated brush/regulator unit is around $75 at the dealer. Maybe they are available aftermarket, I've never checked. It is possible to get just the brushes and solder them in. The process is in either the Archives or the FAQ's.

Good Luck,

Bob
