Detailed Product Overview

BBB Industries part number 11168 is a remanufactured alternator engineered for Mazda 3, Mazda 3 Sport, Mazda 6, and Mazda MX-5 Miata applications that use a 100-amp charging output. The unit is built with a conventional pulley, internal fan, and internal regulator to match the electrical and mechanical requirements of the original charging system. If you are replacing a worn alternator on a 2010-2013 Mazda 3 or Mazda 3 Sport, or a 2006-2013 Mazda 6, this reman alternator provides the correct output and pulley configuration for the listed applications. It also fits 2006-2008 Mazda MX-5 Miata models with the same amperage specification. Part number 11168 is also referenced by Mitsubishi OE-style interchange numbers for related applications.

Common Problems This Part Can Address

• Battery warning light caused by weak charging output
