My apologies for not doing the search myself, I recently had total knee replacement and the combination of pain killers and other meds I am currently taking are not helping my ability to concentrate and reason.
Prior to surgery I dropped off my 86 M1009 at my local dealer here in the Flint MI area (birthplace of the CUCV). In the past they have been very helpful when I have not been physically able to do the work myself. I have not used the M1009 all winter to keep it of the salty roads. I had been starting and running it at least once a month during that time. It recently had the Gen 1 light on all the time. I tested my batteries and decided to replace them. I could not physically handle the problem from there so I used the dealership.
I provided them with my set of TMs and the part number for the stock replacement drivers side generator. They ordered it, installed it but they say they are having a problem with the voltage regulator and had to order a new one directly from the manufacturer.
Can anyone provide me the data for a replacement voltage regulator for that alternator?
I have never been very good at flipping through the TMs online which is the reason I printed out all the TMS. Again, I have tried doing this search myself but all I have accomplished is achieving a mounting headache, the dealership has my hardcopy. I also had cataract removal surgery last month and my eyes are still not handling the computer screen very well. Do yourself a favor stay young and healthy, falling apart in your seventh decade is not fun.
This is a non paid plug for the VA Hospital system: I receive all of my medical care from them and I have always had excellent care, albeit there can be significant wait time for non emergency or urgent care needs. The urgent care system works well and is timely although you have to travel to a VA hospital to receive it. The new Veterans First Choice Program has many bugs in it and being refereed to a local doctor is OK but the interface to then have the VA provide any and all prescriptions and or supplies ordered by the out-of-system doctor does not work; I have had to get a VA doctor to write a script for meds and supplies.
