Removal and installation the generator (Opel Kadett D)

Note: If you install a spare OPEL alternator instead of a standard or triple plug, connect only the blue and white cable for the battery charge indicator light directly to the plug connector ("D+" or "Lomp"). In the case of a diesel engine, the brake booster vacuum pump is removed together with the alternator, since here the pump is flanged to the alternator.

Removal

Disconnect and remove the ground cable from the battery.

Disconnect all cables from the generator.



Diesel Engine: Remove both oil hoses from the vacuum pump on the generator, or unscrew.
