OEM Mopar Alternators for Sale
The alternator is part of your vehicle's charging system. What is does is simple: it takes mechanical energy from the engine and turns it into the electrical energy that feeds many of your systems and accessories.
How an Alternator Works
The vertical motion of the engine pistons is used by the crankshaft, which turns that into rotary motion. That rotary motion turns a drive belt that's attached to a pulley located on the rotor shaft. That spins magnetic coils, which produce a magnetic field. That field's energy is captured as AC power by a rectifier, which converts it into DC power. A voltage regulator manages that power, distributing it to such parts as your power windows, wipers, and entertainment systems.
