Used with alternators found on diesel Toyota engines from the late 1970s to 1989 model years in most cases, though there are a few models after 1989 that continued to use these brushes.
1C, 2C, 2CT engines
Pre-1990 L, 2L, 2LT, 3L engines
Land Cruiser B, 3B, 2H, 12HT engines
Signs that your brushes are wearing out: poor battery charging, low current output during higher electrical demands, though these can be related to other problems with the alternator such as a failed diode, and should be tested by a knowledgeable technician with a charging system analyzer.
Alternator brushes wear gradually over time, and as they near their wear limit they will stop making proper contact with the slip rings and sometimes float over the slip ring making weak contact. Poor slip ring contact will mean poor alternator output as the field coils will not receive the proper amount of excitation.
Brushes are not overly difficult to replace, though it can be frustrating if you have not done it a few times before and learned a few tricks.
When trying to install new brushes, twist the copper strands tightly to straighten the wire to make insertion into the brush holder easier. Make sure the brush is oriented correctly and set at the correct length before soldering into place.
