My alternator has 285k on it. Just what does Bosch do when re manufacturing the alternator. New bearings I bet and the brush/regulator. The commutator is the only other thing. Can the commutator go bad? How often do they go bad? My alternator was soaked with hydraulic fluid. That can't be good. LR

No charging. Battery light & brake light on when driving. I guess I'll take the alternator out and have it tested. How many ways can an alternator fail if it has a new regulator/brush combo? Voting against the wires and for the alternator being bad. Lawrence Rhodes
