Sprinter II 2007-2018 3.0L V6
Sprinter III 2019+ 3.0L V6
This is the identical Valeo alternator sold at a franchise dealership. Dodge Code BAJ, Dodge Code HBD. The unit sold at a Dodge dealer is a rebuilt unit and will have an additional deposit charge of $40. Our unit is a brand new original Valeo alternator. No core deposit required, no return.
To check the integrity of your
alternator pulley, simply remove the belt and place a screwdriver into
the front of the alternator cooling fan to stop the armature from
rotating. Then turn the pulley by hand. If it moves one direction but,
not the other, it is functional. If it will not rotate at all, it has
failed.
IMPORTANT: Unlike the earlier model Sprinters, it is not possible to upgrade the 2007 and later NCV3 models to a higher output alternator. The voltage regulator in these units is hard-wired with a Local Interface Network or LIN code in the engine control unit. Therefore, do not attempt to retrofit a 180 Amp unit to a 220 Amp unit or vice versa.
