The alternator on our L1500 has went bad. Local electric shop says he can't repair it. Where can you find one of these? Also, how do we find out the year model it is? Thanks. Josh

I have a local alternator shop in my community Sale Creek Tn, they rebuilt my alternator in about two days, said it was a very common alternator.

Well. sort of, MY L1500 has a 4 wire plug,
I think the L175 has a three wire plug?

the ones on E_Bay that I looked at are three wire :confused:
Yes, the L175 has 4 and the L1500 has 4.

When I was trying to figure this out for my L1500, I think that from looking at the wiring diagram you sent me, 2 of them could be wired together, so it would have been a matter of getting a 3 wire plug and converting the wire harness. I ended up finding an alternator shop that could rebuild it.

As for figuring out the year, you can't. Sorry
