This product is for Professional and Advanced DIY mechanics. We supply the Tech help to make it work for you. Improper connection or failure to follow written instructions can result in damage to components and vehicle. These kits are not for High output alternators, they will not bring up low output voltage or low idle output, that is the alternator itself. Voltage regulators do not work at low engine RPM's. At idle it's all the alternator, they only control the top RPM voltage from overcharging. if your alternator is working good. If you are not sure if this kit will work for you, MESSAGE USSUPER DUTY FINNED External Voltage Regulator kit for 1988 & up Chrysler Corporation Vehicles. Dodge, Ram, Chrysler & Jeep vehicles since 91. You need the fined regulator on newer vehiclesNEW! Exclusive Stainless Steel Plug Retaining Clip plus Regulator with Cooling Fins for newer Higher Amp Alternators
.Part code (number) : ERCKFRMF FOR VEHICLES FROM 1991 TO 2005. NEWER THAN 2006 MAY REQUIRE MODIFIED DRIVER, MESSAGE US. Also see ERCKFRM, same kit but without the Finned Regulator
Since 1987 for Dodge and Chrysler vehicles and since 1991 for Jeep Family vehicles have alternators that are controlled by theAlternator Voltage Regulator Control Module inside the vehicle computer.

How to test your alternator on the vehicle:
To check to see if your alternator is working, unplug or remove the two field wires from the back of the alternator. Then ground one of the field terminals on the alternator and jumper the other field terminal to the positive battery post on the back of the alternator. It does not matter which terminal is grounded and which one get positive power. When you connect the ground and positive wires to the field terminals you will get a small spark, this is normal. This is by-passing the voltage control and will cause your alternator to run full blast, if it is working. Put a multi-meter on your battery and run your engine on high idle, do not allow your alternator to charge the battery much over 16 volts. If you find that your alternator is charging when you do this procedure, but does not charge when you connect it back to the computer, this kit will get your alternator working and charging at the proper voltage. The voltage regulator is preset at 14.5 volts. If you want to adjust the voltage regulator you use the screw on the back, but be sure the metal case of the voltage regulator is grounded while you adjust it.

“I have helped hundreds of customers solve charging issues", there are many issues that are not covered in buying a regulator and plug separately. If your mechanic installs one of the external regulator kits and it does not have our exclusive plug retaining clip, it is not a Quick Start kit and your plug will eventually fall out. Save the headache, get the support plus the correct parts. Don't piece this together without the support, buy our kit and let someone else have the headache!
External Voltage Regulator Kit and Field Replacement Module for Chrysler vehicles, that have the Alternator Voltage Regulator inside the vehicle's computer
IMPORTANT NOTE: This External Voltage Regulator Kit may also requirea modifieddriver on newer( approx 06 & newer vehicles, some do, some don't need a modified installed driver installed in the alternator)in Dodge, Chrysler, Jeep vehicles. AnotherIMPORTANT NOTE: Adjustable voltage regulator may not increase voltage at Idle speed, the adjustment is for top end output . The only way to bring idle voltage output up is to increase Idle speed , smaller pulley, or a physically larger alternator.
The modified drivers are available in our Sure ifyour vehicle requires amodified driver?,Engine Control Unit (Computer).
The computer is often called theECC,ECM,EEC, orPCM. Often the alternator voltage regulator, or field control in the computer will fail, leaving you with a dead charging system where your alternator doesn't work, yet your engine runs just good. Before our external voltage regulator conversion kit, the computer would need to be replaced right away at a much higher cost.
In order to avoid costly computer replacement and get your alternator working, you can simply bypass the internal Alternator Regulator Control Module using our simple External Voltage Regulator conversion kit.NOTE:The FRM Module (gold color) is inserted between the two wires that go back to the vehicle's computer, which you remove from the alternator to install the external voltage regulator kit. Your vehicles' computer may be broken in such a way the FRM Module will not put out the check engine light in about 10 to 20% of the cases, but the external voltage regulator kit will work 100% of the time as long as your alternator is working.
The FRM module does NOT need to be grounded, where as, the metal case of the voltage regulator must have a good ground between the alternator, voltage regulator and battery. The FRM module may gethotsodon't wrap it up with tape.
