Ford Alternators
An alternator is a compact generator located in front of a car’s engine, and it provides the electricity needed for the electric start motor to start the vehicle. When the car is running, it generates energy to keep its electrical system powered up. LevittownFordParts carries OEM alternators compatible with select Ford models and model years.

Alternators Power Up Your Vehicle’s Electrical System
An automotive charging system is made up of three parts: the battery, voltage regulator, and alternator. A charging system ensures that power features, such as your lights and AC, can function properly without draining your car’s battery.
An alternator is a compact generator that consists of an aluminum housing, magnetic coil, and magnetic rod. The aluminum housing is lightweight and unable to magnetize, helping it stay neutral despite the magnetic field produced by the rotor assembly. The component is usually found in front of the engine, with a pulley that attaches to the crankshaft through a belt. Together with the battery, it generates power to keep a car’s electrical components functional, such as exterior lights and the instrument panel.
If you start to notice parts of your car losing power such as its lights, blower fans, horn, and radio then it might be nearing the end of its lifespan. In turn, this could lead to a dead battery, which could prevent your vehicle from starting up. When that happens, the part is due for a replacement.

What does an alternator do?
The alternator generates electrical energy to power the lights, stereo, heating, and other electrical systems of your car. This component acts as a generator for the car battery to convert the stored energy into mechanical energy for other parts of your vehicle.
Will higher amperes from an alternator damage my battery or charging system?
More amperes from your alternator won’t be an issue for your car. However, high voltage can damage the battery and charging system of your ride. Alternators should only supply the appropriate amount of amperage to a particular component. This means that more amps won’t overload the part, but the additional voltage will.
What are the signs of a bad alternator?
A common symptom of a failing car alternator is a dead battery or flickering headlights. This can be due to inconsistent voltage or insufficient power coming from the alternator. Other signs that you should look out for include burning smells or odd noises from the battery or alternator area of your engine bay.
How do I identify whether the battery or the alternator is broken?
There are two ways to know which part of your starting system is broken. Start your engine and take a look at the dashboard lights. If they are dim, you’ll need an alternator replacement. If they both have consistent brightness, your battery or connection might have an issue.
Another step you can take is to start your engine and see if it dies right away. This could mean that your alternator is not charging your battery.
