Has anyone had trouble with the connector in back of alternator. Mine broke and all the local autoparts store say it a dealer item. Has anyone bought one from some where else. Any info would help. Thanks

 

I haven't had any problem with mine. If I remember correctly, it is a spade type connector, correct? If so, I see no problem in cutting the old one off, and crimping a spade terminal onto the wire.

 

I would say it's a two prong type. Two little rods sticking out and they sit kinda of sit inside of it.

 

have any luck?? i was replacing the alternator today and a wire slipped off my plug i called local dealer they said they dont get heavy duty truck parts and couldnt find a part #

FOUND THAT THE PLUG IS THE SAME IN RAM 1500-3500s ram vans dakotas all years ect.ect. ect.. i cut mine off a 99 ram 1500cargo van, did a nice job wiring it in and its as good as new!!!!! NEW HAMPSHIRE BIKE WEE K HE I COME!!!!

 

Id say just cut one off a truck from a salvage yard and splice it in...

 

i know thats what i did, i found out that most dodge trucks vans ect... have the same plug because around here there isnt any junk cummins in the bone yards.. i needed a quick fix and found same plug on a 99 ram 1500 van 6 cyl gas

 

Hmmm I didnt know that... Good to know! Thanks Ramdieselsmoke
