[alfa] gtwe6 weird elec'l, continued

[dsedon@xxxxxxxxxxxx]

hi all,

well, the adjustable woltage regulator showed up, but now after removing the old one, (turns out it, too, was an adjustable model), i'm not sure it was the culprit.  see, there's this other weird li'l elec'l device on the back of the alternator, that was broken.  it screws into the alternator w/one screw, about 90 degrees away from the woltage regulator, has a wire coming off of it that plugs into the alternator near the center.  the li'l bracket that holds it to the alternator, is snapped off - looks like some kinda rectangular mini-coil, which is held in a black plastic case.  (seriously deteriorated.)

i soldered the bracket back on to the coil, & covered the deteriorated plastic w/marine goop, but i dunno if the repair will be successful, as i haven't put it all back on the alternator, since i need to get some distilled hoh for the battery anyways...

but, i'd really like to get another one of these elec'l parts - it's a bosch part, has this on it:  2.2 (w/some unidentified ting after the 2.2 - uf?), f/100v.  part # is: 0290 800 036

thanks again,

doug s.
