Htmlkid Posted Tuesday at 07:54 PM Report Posted Tuesday at 07:54 PM My alternator just went bad on my 1988 Money M20J 205SE that has a lycoming io 390 engine. The alternator was a prestolite 24V. Unfortunatly they dont make aircraft alternators any more. Does anyone know of a sutable replacement? Quote
Rwsavory Posted Tuesday at 08:02 PM Report Posted Tuesday at 08:02 PM You can look for overhauled units on Aircraft Spruce. But, have you explored having yours repaired? Quote
Ragsf15e Posted Tuesday at 08:07 PM Report Posted Tuesday at 08:07 PM And did you (or your ia) make sure it’s definitely the alternator and not a bad field wire, voltage reg, or other wiring issue? Quote

EricJ Posted Wednesday at 03:34 AM Report Posted Wednesday at 03:34 AM I'd try a local electrical/alternator shop first. Lots of heavy equipment uses 24V systems, they're not uncommon. 1 Quote
CCAS Posted Wednesday at 04:08 AM Report Posted Wednesday at 04:08 AM You might try the overhaul path. Aircraft Electrical Components, Inc in Riverside, CA (recently re-located from Irvine) helped me with an alternator overhaul and magneto overhaul in the past year. Ask for Cindy. aecnrc.com (530) 221-4397 Quote
