Here's why:
* Alternator output varies: The alternator output depends on the model year, engine size, and even optional features like heavy-duty electrical systems.
* Multiple possibilities: Ford Windstars were produced over several years with different engine options.
To find the correct amperage for your Windstar, you can:
1. Check your owner's manual: The owner's manual will have specifications for your specific vehicle.
2. Look at the alternator itself: The alternator might have a sticker or label with its output rating.
3. Consult a Ford dealer or repair shop: They can look up the correct information based on your vehicle's VIN.
4. Use an online parts catalog: Websites like RockAuto or AutoZone allow you to search for your specific model and find the alternator's specifications.
Remember, providing incorrect alternator information can lead to problems with your vehicle's electrical system. Always consult reliable sources to ensure you have the right information.
