1990 B250 Engine Fault Code 41 help
Hello, I have been GROSSLY misdiagnosing my engine fault code so I have attached a YouTube clip incase I'm making another mistake.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E99SlRtLY2g I believe that I have codes... 12 - Battery or computer recently disconnected (yup, I understand this one) 41 - Alternator field control circuit open or shorted 55 - End of codes (yup, I understand this one too) My 1990 B250 318 5.2L starts fine, appears to charge fine, and runs fine. I have owned the van for over 3 years with the same battery and I have not had any apparent problems with the electrical system. I read in another post, regarding the alternator, that the field coil in the alternator could be bad. Quoted from 11-12-2010, 01:57 AM 1994 RAM B250 stalls when coming to stop, "The alternator field is a coil inside the alternator that is controlled by the voltage regulator to (ahem) regulate the voltage output of the alternator. - Alloro" Can this coil easily be replaced, do I just need a new alternator, any thoughts on where I should start? Thanks for your time in advance. roberson ps - the quotation was to help in taking note of what previous posts I've scoured. |
