broken conecter to alternater

[skyejack]

found the problem with my alternater

the big copper? wire that goes in the plastic bit with a bolt/stud thru it with a 10 mm nut was well frayed.

hope this makes sense

tried to undo nut and sheared it of below thread.

can push wire onto broken stud and dash lights go out. engine note changes slightly too.

can i fix this with spare parts. is the stud replaceable also the plastic bit broke ??????

advice needed. help

That cable goes direct to the battery to charge it when the engine is running.

Have you removed the lower nut? If you can, there should be enough thread left on the post to secure the cable to it.
Re the broken plastic insulator, you could use a short piece of rubber hose instead.

If no luck, then an alternator repairer will sort it for you. (No the easiest solution where you are)

its snapped of just inside the alt casing. am able shove the wire into whats left ov the plastic insulater and then shove it in the hole but this is not a fix just a temp bodge to test it.

if i could get a goosed alt from someone ??? would it be a diy repair?

thanks for working out my pidgin mechanical vocab

Hopefully someone will be along with a decent secound hand Alternator, thats the route I would go.
