Frequently Asked Questions
Is this generator new or remanufactured?
It is a remanufactured unit — a rebuilt generator built for dependability and reliability throughout the vehicle's service life, not a brand-new part.
Will this generator fit my vehicle?
It fits a range of 1953-1963 classic applications from AMC, Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet, GMC, Oldsmobile, Pontiac, and Studebaker. Check the Buyer's Guide tab for the full 65-application list and your exact year, make, and model.
What does the generator do?
A belt-driven generator converts mechanical energy from the engine into DC electrical current, charging the battery and powering the vehicle's electrical system while the engine runs.
What are the signs my generator may need replacing?
Common signs include a battery that keeps discharging, dim or flickering lights, or a charge-warning indicator. Diagnose the charging system first; if a failed generator is the cause, this unit replaces it.

It cross-references the following numbers: 1102002, 1102003, 1102005, 1102008, 1102010, 1102011, 1102014, 1102022, 1102028, 1102044, 1102051, 1102053, 1102061, 1102063, 1102065, 1102069, 1102082, 1102086, 1102099, and 1102113.
