Voltage Regulator

[evnmopwr]

hi guys

im looking for a Voltage Regulator for the Valeo Alternator with part number SG12B029...

Why is it so hard to find here in Cape Town????

The Replacement part number for this regulator is REG0087

Do any of you Local guys have contacts that has this component please???

I found one in johannesburg at DCB Electrical in Alberton but the Quality of it looks Poor...

It must be Valeo brand or at least a GERMAN Manufactured brand

I have contacted Sparxx, Automagneto, trysome,motolek,midas,masterparts,Gooiehoop,Hyper,Diesel Electric,Autozone ETC ETC ETC

:ty:

Hey there,

I had to end up importing mine from eBay. Took a week. Was R1k.

Could not for the life of me get it locally...

Good luck!

For what car is this.

I have a complete Valeo alternator for an 330i e46.

Not sure if this helps.

its for a 2001 E46 325i touring.. Would assume they all the same

What you asking for it? know the Status of that Regulator??

Not sure if they are the same, please confirm with Real OEM.

Please note I have the whole alternator not just the regulator.

R1500 for it.

I did not remove the Alternator during the replacement

Simply Disconnected the Negative terminal on battery
Removed the airbox ( 10mm Socket used for 2 bolts PLUS screw driver for MAF Clamp )
Removed the power line to alternator ( 17mm Socket used if i remember correctly )
Disconnected the Duct to alternator
removed the Plastic Cover ( 7mm Small tube socket needed 2xbolts )
Removed the Regulator ( 7mm Small tube socket needed 3xbolts )

Old Regulator

New Vs Old

When installing the new Regulator, it has a Black Round section (as seen in image)
The New Regulator comes with 2, the one on is actually holding the Brushes back
DO NOT REMOVE IT...
Install the regulator as is and tighten the bolts.
Once its in place, pull the Round black cover off and the Brushes pop out and make contact to the Alternator shaft
Now you use the second black cover to Slide over again

This image Shows the First Cap that is on the Regulator
the arrow points to the Brushes being pushed back by this cap
The second cap has the Circled section open so just a cover
