What was found
(CAN) WHILE ATTEMPTING TO REPLACE THE STAND-BY ALTERNATOR IT WAS DISCOVERED THAT THE ELECTRICAL CONNECTION WOULD NOT ENGAGE INTO THE SOCKET PROVIDED IN THE ALTERNATOR BECAUSE THE SOCKET WAS OVERFILLED WITH EPOXY RESIN. ATTEMPTS WERE MADE TO CLEAR THE EXCESS RESIN BUT IT WAS FEARED THAT DAMAGE TO THE ALTERNATOR WOULD RESULT. THE MFG HAS BEEN RECENTLY TAKEN OVER BY A NEW OWNER AND SINCE THIS TAKEOVER THIS IS THE SECOND TIME WE HAVE COME ACROSS THIS PROBLEM. THE UNIT WAS RETURNED TO THE VENDOR FOR REPLACEMENT.
