Bosch Alternator P/N:AL559N
Bosch AL7541X alternator for the 2002-2005 Ford Explorer V8 4.6L and other vehicles charges the battery and supplies power to the electrical system while the engine runs. This Bosch remanufactured alternator is made with current manufacturing technologies.
A battery warning light, dim headlights or a battery that keeps going flat can come from the charging system, and the alternator is only one possible cause. Before replacing it, look over the drive belt for cracks or fraying and the battery cable ends for looseness or corrosion, with the engine off; a shop can load-test the charging system.
The vehicles covered include the 2002-2005 Ford Explorer V8 4.6L, the 2003-2005 Lincoln Aviator V8 4.6L and the 1999-2002 Ford Crown Victoria V8 4.6L. The 2002-2005 Ford Explorer V8 4.6L takes one. If your car is not named here, open the Buyer's Guide tab and check your exact model and engine.
