    1. Remove 3 screws (8 mm) from the back cover.

    2. Remove 3 screws (Torx T20) from the internal voltage regulator/brush holder assembly.

    3. Clean slip rings with #240 abrasive cloth. Ensure there are no grooves or ridges that will interfere with the brushes seating fully. Rotate the rotor and, using a file, carefully remove any ridges; finish with #240 abrasive clothe. This is one of the most crucial aspects of rebuilding an alternator. Many problems are directly attributable to the condition of the brushes and slip rings.

    4. Install new voltage regulator/brush holder assembly and tighten the three T20 screws.
