I hate to say it buddy, but it sounds like you may have done something wrong. The regulator is the weak link in the alternator, so once you replace that, it should work just fine. I know, you certainly don't want to hear this, but you may have to take it all apart and double-check everything.
Nice video and helpful , but question can't you drop the regulator down before you disconnect the wire on the clips? It would seem easier if you do it when you can see it
True, but my hand barely fit into that area and I was using whatever process I could to accomplish my task, and sometimes things take a twist on ya. 😁 Thanks for the comment bud. 👍
That's why I created the video, hopefully I cut back on some of the "learning" time for someone else. Plus, if you have big hands you're gonna have a bit of a challenge in such a tight space. I wear an xl glove and I got in there- so it is possible. 🤷♂️
I’m getting high battery drain , could this be the problem
It could be, that's what the situation was with my car.
i changed my regulator and now the charging malfunction comes on constantly. i put a new valeo one in there

@@CentTxLiving I took it out and realized the tab wasnt pushed in all the way so the prongs didnt come out. Took 30mins to change the second time
@FreshieAlbanian That is fantastic that you found that. So I trust the alternator is working as designed now?

That turns a quick job into a very long one. There's a lot involved with that.
