Keep alternator whine and static out of your sound system with the Standard Ignition Alternator Capacitor / Radio Capacitor (RC-12). This noise-suppression capacitor connects to the charging circuit to filter the radio-frequency interference the alternator generates so it stays out of the radio, and it fits a wide range of early-1980s Chrysler, Dodge and Plymouth models — including the 1982-1985 Chrysler LeBaron [All] and [L4-2.6L], 1983-1985 Chrysler New Yorker [All] and [L4-2.6L], 1982-1985 Dodge Aries [L4-2.6L], 1984-1987 Dodge Caravan [L4-2.6L] and 1984-1987 Plymouth Voyager [L4-2.6L]. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full 35-application list.

  • Charging-system noise control: a capacitor that suppresses radio-frequency interference from the charging system.
  • Quality-controlled build: made by a global manufacturer of original-equipment ignition products with quality control maintained from componentry through the finished product.
  • High-grade materials: starting and charging-system parts use high-grade materials for extended service life.
  • Country of origin: Japan.

If a failed capacitor is the source of alternator-related whine or static in your radio, RC-12 replaces it. It's listed under both the Alternator Capacitor and Radio Capacitor names. This part is available only while supplies last. Manufacturer part number RC-12.

This part cross-references / interchanges with the following part numbers:

G672, MD607262, URS1511, EP876, A315S01570

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the Standard Ignition RC-12 do?

It's a noise-suppression capacitor that connects to the charging circuit to filter radio-frequency interference produced by the alternator, helping keep that electrical noise out of your radio.

Will this fit my vehicle?

It's a direct-fit replacement for many 1980-1987 Chrysler, Dodge and Plymouth models such as the LeBaron, New Yorker, Aries, Caravan and Voyager. Check the Buyer's Guide tab for the full 35-application list.

What are signs this capacitor may need replacing?

A whine or static in the radio that rises and falls with engine RPM can be a sign. Diagnose the cause first, since that noise can have other sources.

Why is it listed under two names?

It's cataloged as both an Alternator Capacitor and a Radio Capacitor — the same part, RC-12, known by both names.

Where is the RC-12 made and how many come in the package?

Country of origin is Japan. The listed applications use one per vehicle, and this part is available only while supplies last.
