Good point and probably worth to check. Will check that over the weekend and hope I am able to identify the temp sensor even knowing where it should sit...
If that doesn't solve my problem it might be best to just buy the $179 alternator on ebay and not bother spending some money on a new reg without knowing that this is the issue.
What kind of inforamtion do I need exactly to buy an altenator (excuse my stupid questions)? Somewhere I read that model no etc are important and that you should get the old one out first to gathe rall required information?
Thanks
