Keep the battery charged and every electrical accessory powered with the TERREPOWER (formerly BBB Industries) Remanufactured Alternator 13657. It's a direct-fit replacement for the 1998 Nissan Maxima (V6-3.0L) and is built to replace the Hitachi original-equipment unit, remanufactured for dependability and reliability throughout the vehicle's service life.
The alternator's job is to convert engine-driven mechanical energy into electrical current, charging the battery and running the vehicle's electrical systems while the engine runs. Signs the original may need replacing include dim or flickering lights, a charging/battery warning light, or a battery that keeps running down; diagnose the cause before replacing, since these symptoms can have other sources. If a failed alternator is the cause, this unit replaces it.
