slip rings not making contact, sense wire connection gave up with the dousing/heat

check for lose wires as well...

There are other non-genuine alts that are available that cost a whole lot less than 2k. if you search around on here and in the part numbers sticky thread you'll be able to get one for a few hundred.

There's a company (hc cargo) in Esbjerg, if I remember correctly, that makes rebuild kits (slip ring, voltage regulator, rectifier and bearings) for some alternators, so you may be able to rebuild your old unit and keep it for a spare. P?j p?j.
