I know this is an old thread but here goes. My alternator is squeeling like someone mentioned previously on here. Is spraying it with WD-40 or something adequate or does it mean the bearing is going out and I should replace it? I’ve got plenty of time over Christmas break to remove the alternator if I need to, but is it necessary if I can just give it a spray?
i dont know wat wd-40 would really do. my guess is it would just make it squeel more, i would start it up and rub a bar of soap against the belt. that should work. for a while, or untill it rains lol… either tighten your belt or buy a new one, if all fails
Just for future reference. I found out it wasn’t my alternator but my ac tensioner pulley. It was almost siezed. Replaced it and sound is gone.
srry to rez an OLD thread, but i got a '91 RS that has an intermittent charging issue. with the lights on(parking or full on) after awhile if i hit the brakes it will drop to below 11, then sit at 12 at idle, and driving around would come to 14ish and shut my radio off when i touch the brake and when i turn the car off i won’t get any bat voltage or start, then it will jump back up and the car will start/run fine.
i got the normal dimming lights when u touch brakes with lights on, and they will dim at idle.
has anyone else had this problem and has this alt fix fixed the problem?.
ordering the assembly tomorrow anyway, just to be safe.

alternator fix - brush assembly
i recently ordered the brush assembly and this is what they sent, it sure doesnt look like the orange ones in the previous pic. was i supposed to receive 2 or them? will this fit my 92 intergra? the package they sent it in has a honda sticker and the correct part #31105-PR7-A01. although that could just be a front! lol!
The plastic white ring around yours doesn’t appear to be on the other pictured sensors.
And you only need one. The picture had two sensors in order to show you both sides of it.
yes, so are you saying i cant use this for my car? i did another search for a 91 integra and the orange ones came up. my car is a 92 integra, perhaps they changed the part for my vehicle? help!
i don’t know what you have there, but that’s not what i got from honda either, i got the orange one
thanks matty, do you remember what brand stock alternator came with your car? i’m thinking they changed the alternator for the 92-93 tegs cuz all of the website are showing the orange brush for 90-91 and the white one that i got for the 92-93 tegs. does anyone have a 1992 integra LS, 1.8L L4 PFI DOHC 16V automatic transmission manufactured in japan and know the brush assembly?
i don’t remember, i still have my spare alternator that i tried to fix sitting around here. but it was from a 90
alright thanks.
