zak 0 Posted August 1, 2008 i got a spare alternator of my friend, below is a pic, where do i connect the blue wire to? In my old alternator there was a small terminal that went to the plastic casing, on this it looks like ©in the pic below but that just screws in to the metal casing and does not seem connected to anything.

Supercharged 2 Posted August 1, 2008 I don't think thats a VR alt mate, they were Bosch not Valeo Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zak 0 Posted August 13, 2008 The alternator is from a golf vr6 and is a direct fit to the corrado i just needed to tap the sleeves out so that it would fit on to the corrado bracket. As for the terminal © above this is just used to secure the cable in place. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
antonio_b12 0 Posted August 13, 2008 I had a Valeo Alternator which came with my VR when i brought it, then it failed on me. I upgraded to a 120amp alt from a golf highline, so far so good. :thumb right: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
