Keep the charging system's output in check with the Standard Ignition Voltage Regulator VR-161. It drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 1978 Toyota Celica, the 1977-1978 Toyota Corona, and the 1978 Toyota Cressida (see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level details). A voltage regulator manages the charging system's output voltage, holding it within the proper range so the battery and electrical components aren't over- or under-charged.
Encapsulated PC board: the electronic voltage regulator's circuit board is sealed in epoxy for improved performance and added resistance to failures caused by vibration and corrosion of the electrical connections.
Precise, reliable operation: premium components and Standard's own manufactured circuit board are built for accurate operation, reliability, and extra durability toward a longer service life.
Quality-controlled build: produced by a global manufacturer of original-equipment ignition products that maintains quality control from componentry through the finished product.
Charging-system grade materials: the starting and charging system line uses high-grade materials for extended service life.
If a failed regulator is the cause of a dead or overcharged battery, dim or flickering lights, or an unstable charging voltage, this unit replaces it.
It controls the charging system's output voltage, keeping it within the proper range so the battery and electrical components aren't over- or under-charged.
Which vehicles does the VR-161 fit?
It's a direct-fit replacement for the 1978 Toyota Celica, 1977-1978 Toyota Corona, and 1978 Toyota Cressida. Check the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm your vehicle.
What are signs my voltage regulator may need replacing?
A dead or overcharged battery, dim or flickering lights, or an unstable charging voltage can be signs. Diagnose the cause before replacing, as these symptoms have other possible sources.
How is the circuit board protected?
The electronic PC board is encapsulated in epoxy for improved performance and added resistance to failure caused by vibration and corrosion of the electrical connections.
What interchange numbers does this part replace?
It cross-references 89058253, R2007, IGNA156, VR1045, 2770045020, and 2770045021.
