I sure was hoping for an Intro thread first, but low and behold, I need the collective help. I've got a 1981 FJ45, Troopy. Built in Japan (A11) but used by the Chilean Army before me. So its got a heater and such. Battery overcharged last weekend and looked like Old Faithful, so I suspect a bad voltage regulator. Other clue was headlights dim when I take my foot off the accelerator.
I pulled the voltage regulator and contacted CruiserTeq to see if he had any replacements. Well, stumped them. He doesn't have any that look like this and not sure if there is a substitute. (side note, he was very helpful and super responsive but no luck finding one).
Sooooo......
Here is what I have. Anyone know if replacements/substitute is available? Six wires out of the housing and wound solenoids that activate what I can only assume are On/Off contacts.
Any help or guidance would be very much appreciated.
