Caution
Please note the following points during all assembly work, in particular in the engine compartment, due to the narrow installation conditions:
Route electrical wiring so that original wiring layout is restored.
Make sure there is adequate clearance from all moving or hot components.
Alternator on vehicles with Start/Stop system:
Until now the alternator and the voltage regulator were connected together via their own wires to the engine and onboard supply control unit. For vehicles with Start/Stop system, the information transmission occurs via a LIN data bus to the diagnostic interface for data bus. Via the CAN data bus, it supplies information to other control units such as the engine control unit.
