Hello all, I'm new to this group and was wondering if anyone was familiar with the replacement of an alternator in a 1997 900 2.3L Non-turbo 4cyc. The dealership did an "AVR" test and said it was nearly done and I have noticed my battery light coming on as well as the caution light and constant chiming. I have ordered the Haynes manual but shipping is 3-5 weeks so I'm looking for a little help on the process. The bulk of the info I have found has been for the old style 900's but anyone who knows about a ~1997 could be of great help! Surely there is a web site out there with a step by step how-to pictures etc but I can't find it. If you know of a relevant one let me know or if you have done it, I would love to hear from you! I have read that when replacing the alternator, you should also replace some other parts while your at it due to wear although I am not sure what I need. Any help with this would also be greatly appreciated. Something about Bushings or Bearings need replacement... Another article mentioned replacing the Voltage Regulator but for some reason I thought this model has an internal one within the alternator, any clarification would be great! Finally, if you have a scanner and the Green Haynes manual, I would be in debt to anyone who could send along the relevant pages. My e-mail account takes an unlimited number of 10 meg (capped) emails. Thank you very much in advance, -Andrew Bustanospamandara.com
