My 4.2 has an almost new Denso DAN020 alternator on it. I think I accidentally damaged the regulator by shorting out on the main terminal once. The reason I beleve the regulator has gone tits up is the lights pulse when on and my volt meter says 8v to 19v as its output!

Is it possible to just buy a new regulator and from where?

And just out of interest, how many wires go to your alternator? Mines has just two.



Here is a video of whats occurring...

Thanks, I've fired off some questions to see if any of the sellers can supply. Just out of interest, how many wires go to your alternator?
