FAQs
What is the charging current of this alternator?
This Hella Alternator has a charging current of 150A.
What type of belt pulley does it have?

Troubleshooting
Alternator not charging the battery
Check battery connections for tightness and corrosion. Inspect the serpentine belt for wear, tension, and proper alignment. Verify electrical connections to the alternator are secure. If issues persist, the alternator may be faulty and require replacement.
Whining or grinding noise from the alternator area
This could indicate a worn bearing in the alternator or a problem with the belt pulley. Inspect the pulley for smooth rotation when the belt is off. A professional diagnosis is recommended.
Battery warning light is on
This light typically indicates a charging system fault. It could be a faulty alternator, loose connection, or a problem with the voltage regulator. Check connections first, then consider professional testing of the alternator.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
Installation of this alternator should be performed by a qualified mechanic. It requires removal of the old unit, disconnection of battery terminals (always disconnect the negative terminal first), and proper connection of electrical wiring and mounting bolts. Ensure the new alternator is securely mounted and the belt is correctly tensioned.
Compatibility:
This alternator is specifically listed as compatible with various Fiat Ducato, Peugeot Expert, and Citroën Dispatch models. Crucially, always verify fitment by checking your vehicle's original equipment (OE) part number against the provided OEM Cross References (CITROËN: 5702.A0, 5702.A1, 5705.AA, 5705.ER, 94 675 603 80) and confirming physical dimensions (pulley diameter, mounting points) before purchasing.
Care:
Alternators are generally maintenance-free components. However, keep the alternator area clean and free from excessive dirt and debris. Ensure the serpentine belt is in good condition and properly tensioned, as a worn or loose belt will impair charging performance. Periodically check electrical connections for corrosion.
