If you’re gonna go through the effort of replacing the alternator, do NOT get cheap shit. Get a new/remanufactured Denso alternator.
Denso alternator is my go to choice for that vehicle.
For my personal vehicles, I replace alternators at 100K with Remy or Denso new alternators and have never had an issue and I save a lot of money by waiting a couple of days.
Nippondenso (Denso) is what I would choose, I believe this is the OEM manufacturer.
I would get Denso
Had the same issue with a reman denso alternator that went in a Honda, it was the cheap diode/rectifier pack that was fitted that was causing the bat light to stay on.
you can go on rockauto.com and should be able to purchase an OEM Denso Alternator.
If you are going to get a new or remanufactured alternator spend the $$$ for a DENSO one.
As some others have said, make sure you only get the remanufactured Denso alternator. No other alternator seems to work.
Triumph TR7. You're a bunch of amateurs. I'm a British car guy in general but the Wedge was exactly as bad as advertised. When it couldn't keep a battery charged I converted it to a GM alternator, then the radiator fell out. A previous owner had pop-riveted a license plate over a hole in the floor. Keeping the carbs synched is a black art. The seat frame snapped as I went down the road - I later found out that it had been hose-clamped together by a previous owner. It didn't catch fire as many times as my Spitfire has, but at least the Spit is fun to drive. The headlights didn't just pop up out of sync, they popped up and *turned on* on their own.
I've also owned a Hyundai Pony and it was a Toyota Cressida next to the Wedge.
