Ford Crown Victoria Voltage Regulator
In Ford Crown Victoria vehicles, the main function of the Voltage Regulator to limit the output or the voltage that is produced by the alternator to avoid damaging the battery or any other electrical component in the car by overloading it by producing more than 13.5 volts to 14.5 volts. This is done by regulating battery voltage as well as with system demand, controlling the field current to the alternator rotor. When the battery needs charging, the regulator boosts the field current and on the other hand demotes the current when the battery is full to avoid overcharging. Earlier models of the Crown Victoria series had externally mounted mechanical voltage regulators which comprised coils together with contact points and usually got worn out quickly. These were later substituted by electronically, solid state voltage regulators that are more efficient operation and switch on off at a much faster rate. Latest vehicles have moved to internal regulator located inside the alternator while the PCM controls the voltage output by assessing factors such as battery temperature and load on the engine.

Ford Crown Victoria Voltage Regulator Parts Questions & Experts Answers
- Q: How to replace the Voltage Regulator on IAR Type alternator for Ford Crown Victoria?A:To remove the Alternator, set it on a clean workbench. Then, remove the four voltage regulator mounting screws to detach the voltage regulator/brush holder assembly. Lift the assembly from the alternator and detach the rubber plugs. Remove the brush lead retaining screws and nuts to separate the brush leads from the holder. After noting the relationship of the brushes to the brush holder assembly, remove both brushes, being careful not to lose the springs. If installing a new voltage regulator, insert the old brushes into the brush holder of the new regulator. If installing new brushes, insert them into the brush holder of the old regulator, ensuring the springs are properly compressed and the brushes are properly inserted into the recesses in the brush holder. Install the brush lead retaining screws and nuts. Insert a short section of wire, like a paperclip, through the hole in the voltage regulator to hold the brushes in the retracted position during regulator installation. Carefully install the regulator, making sure the brushes don't hang up on the rotor. Finally, install the alternator.
- Q: How to replace the External Voltage Regulator on Ford Crown Victoria?A:To detach the negative terminal cable of the battery, locate the voltage regulator on the right side of the engine compartment. Remove the battery or air cleaner duct to gain access to the voltage regulator if needed. Unplug the electrical connector from the voltage regulator and remove the mounting bolts and remove the regulator. Installation is the reverse of removal.
