Gentlemen,

I don't post here very often but I need some help please.

I recently had to replace my voltage regulator because of battery light
issues. The brushes where worm quite bad. I had to do a second replacement
several weeks later because one of the brushes on the new voltage reg.
brock. I assumed I installed it incorrectly and did not have the brushes
riding the rollers properly. The brushes where also grooved badly.

I replaced the Voltage reg again making my best attempt to install this
thing correctly. Now I have the same problem again. Is it possible the
rollers on the alternator are worn to much and it simply needs replacement?

Thanks in advance for any advice.

Peter S.
