The vw replacement alternator number is 021-903-023-A,
On the 914 parts catalog it is 022 903 023. Looking at images online i see the vw has some kind of suppressor on it (causing shorts until remedied) the one on my engine (likely a 411) does not have this. It also has no numbers on it. Does the 914 alternator have the suppressor? Can i fit the vw numbered alternator without issues? |

For those as electronically challenged as myself I have an answer.
The alternator is fine. The suppressor which caused my confusion is part number 021 903 295 and is a separate part whereas I thought it was integral. Duh! Anyhow back to making I'll fitting parts fit! |
