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.
I replaced my original alternator (which is also denso out of the factory) with a brand new denso alternator. Should be the exact same thing as the factory alt. It's not working at all. Battery is not staying charged. Had a complete diagnostic done by Honda and they said it is the alt. Kinda disappointed I waisted $700.
