I am a new member and need advise. Got a 95' 3.5 V6 Lwb. My alternator (voltage regulator) keeps on breaking eversince I put in a duel battery system. I took my Pajero to another auto elec the guy who put in the battery system couldnt fix alternator. I need a new alternator and would like to know what exactley to buy and where to buy it please.

diagnose why the regulator keeps blowing before you replace the whole thing.
No point in blowing a new one as well.

Muller,
Check what the amp rating is of your alternator. I had mine upgraded to 95 amps at my local bosch diagnostic center/auto elecs.

Thanks! Will do, I will need a new one after I have found the problem, the guys say that the vehicle has had the wrong alternator eversince... seems like I will have to do my wiring, the monkey who did the battery system made a huge ballsup!
