We supply the Tech help to make it work for you. Improper connection or failure to follow written instructions can result in damage to components and vehicle.Plus Technical and Troubleshooting Assistance with Every Purchase# ERCKFRM for 2006 & up may also require a modified driver, message us with your vehicle detailsExclusive: VOLTAGE REGULATOR PLUG RETAINING CLIP (SEE WIRING HARNESS PICTURE)Tell your mechanic to install alternatormans kit.
I have helped hundreds of customers solve charging issues", there are many issues that are not covered in buying a regulator and plug separately. If your mechanic installs one of the external regulator kits and it does not have our exclusive plug retaining clip, it is not a Quick Start kit and your plug will eventually fall out. Save the headache, get the support plus the correct parts. Don't piece this together without the support get it from alternatorman!
IMPORTANT NOTE: This External Voltage Regulator Kit may also requirea modified driver on newer( approx 06 & newer vehicles, some do, some don't need a modified installed driver installed in the alternator) in Dodge, Ram, Chrysler, Jeep vehicles.
The modified drivers are available in our Sure ifyour vehicle requires a modified driver?

The computer is often called theECC,ECM,EEC, orPCM. Often the alternator voltage regulator, or field control in the computer will fail, leaving you with a dead charging system where your alternator doesn't work, yet your engine runs just good. Before our external voltage regulator conversion kit, the computer would need to be replaced.
In a bind, get your alternator working, you can simply bypass the internal Alternator Regulator Control Module using our simple External Voltage Regulator conversion kit.NOTE:The FRM Module (gold color) is inserted between the two wires that go back to the vehicle's computer, which you remove from the alternator to install the external voltage regulator kit. Your vehicles' computer may be broken in such a way the FRM Module will not put out the check engine light in about 10 to 20% of the cases, but the external voltage regulator kit will work 100% of the time as long as your alternator is working.
The FRM module does NOT need to be grounded, where as, the metal case of the voltage regulator must have a good ground between the alternator, voltage regulator and battery. The FRM module may gethotsodon't wrap it up with tape.
How to test your alternator on the vehicle: FOR TECH HELP MESSAGE USTo check to see if your alternator is working, unplug or remove the two field wires from the back of the alternator. Then ground one of the field terminals on the alternator and jumper the other field terminal to the positive battery post on the back of the alternator. It does not matter which terminal is grounded and which one get positive power. When you connect the ground and positive wires to the field terminals you will get a small spark, this is normal. This is by-passing the voltage control and will cause your alternator to run full blast, if it is working. Put a multi-meter on your battery and run your engine on high idle, do not allow your alternator to charge the battery much over 16 volts. If you find that your alternator is charging when you do this procedure, but does not charge when you connect it back to the computer, this kit will get your alternator working and charging at the proper voltage. The voltage regulator is preset at 14.5 volts. If you want to adjust the voltage regulator you use the screw on the back, but be sure the metal case of the voltage regulator is grounded while you adjust it.
