Yes, when replacing with an external regulator from AD Alternators, all parts of the original regulator must be removed and all connections carefully separated. The original regulator then serves only as a brush holder without connections. Two wires from the brushes of the original regulator, black and yellow, must be desoldered. Then connect the black wire to ground and the yellow wire to the regulator. This process requires precision and technical know-how to ensure optimal functionality. An optimal regulator replacement ensures that the alternator operates independently and does not rely on existing control circuits.
The charging control light usually comes on when there is a mismatch. With the VAG 350A - 13.4V-16.2V from AD Alternators, the light must be bridged because the alternator operates autonomously. Error messages often result from the missing or incomplete connection with the vehicle's control unit. The adjustment requires technical understanding not only of electrical systems but also of the autonomous operation of the alternator in contrast to conventional DF / DFM regulations. A correctly made connection avoids illuminated warning indicators and ensures the smooth performance of the vehicle.
To set the regulator, correct wiring is essential. The black cable should be connected to ground, while the red cable is connected to +12V after the ignition. The yellow cable of the regulator is connected to the yellow cable of the second brush. Proper wiring ensures that the alternator operates within the intended voltage range of 13.4 to 16.2 volts. Any adjustment of the voltage must be done precisely and carefully to avoid overvoltage or undervoltage and to ensure efficient power supply for the vehicle's electrical systems.
The VAG 350A - 13.4V-16.2V alternator has specific dimensions for OEM-compliant installation. These include size specifications such as A: 43 mm, B: 21 mm, and C: 46 mm. Additionally, important diameter measurements like O.D.1 at 44 mm and the M10x1.5 mm thread at D.3 and D.4. The exact measurements are essential for fitting into existing mounts and for compatibility with certain mounting mechanisms of the VAG group. Precise measurement and installation are required to avoid fitting inaccuracies that could lead to malfunctions.
A relay is crucial for the safe control of the VAG 350A - 13.4V-16.2V alternator. It allows for control of the generator only when the engine is running. This ensures that the alternator does not start under load, which could lead to premature wear. The use of a separate switch in conjunction with a relay is particularly important to ensure consistent performance as well as an optimized lifespan. The proper use of these components helps to avoid unnecessary loads and provides more efficient energy management within the vehicle's electrical system.
To connect the VAG 350A - 13.4V-16.2V correctly, several steps must be executed precisely. First, lead the black cable from the brush to ground. Then, connect the yellow cable from the second brush to the yellow cable of the regulator. The regulator itself follows the rule of also leading the black cable to ground, while the red cable is coupled with a power source after ignition, such as the fuel pump or a relay. This connection process ensures smooth operation without compromising the original vehicle specifications, which ensures tailored performance.
