Is there really anything that can be cleaned or is it the IC itself that corrodes?

It's a potted module. There are a couple of holes in the "bad" version and if it is bad you actually see rust at the holes. If you catch it before that you can simply seal the holes with a dab of RTV, but once corroded it is done, since you can't pull the module apart without damaging it.

Is there specs on belt tension? I mat at some pointe change it out.
Looks like a bear. I cannot see the bottom bolts, no room. Also there is one plastic connector I cannot figure out how to remove it. I read here some where that Bosch is not as good a Denso, I can get Bosch but not Denso, locally. Any truth about Bosch? Thanks Steve, |

Maybe just try for a used one at the salvage yard and swap the chip over.

I found a used one from a 2012 sedan. It's cheap enough.
But will it swap out? I can't see any reason just to swap modules. Unless I can do it in place without removing the alternator. Is there a DIY on this some where? You guys are great. Steve |
