Hello all

New alternator arrived today supplied by car dealer who's car it was
unfortunately i just fitted it unlike what Sean suggested by just plugging it in.

then to find it was not a smart charge alternator which gave a fault code of

2502 Charging System Voltage 4E

after calls to the supplier who was a little unsure as the part number of old unit crossed over

I was then given a Hella unit which went straight on with no problems

The only thing i noticed between the non smart charge and the Smart charge versions was the letters DF molded into the plastic casing next to the 2 pin connector and also on the label

The non smart charge alternator was only marked with a L



Below is a good Duty signal of white wire on pin 2 at the alternator




Hope this helps someone else

Terry
