3100829
Supply power to electronics: When the engine is on, the alternator provides steady electricity to all onboard systems—headlights, AC, radio, power windows, and the engine control unit (ECU). It takes over from the battery, so the battery doesn’t get drained while driving.
Charge the battery: It sends excess electricity to the H330’s 12V battery, keeping it fully charged. This ensures the battery has enough power to start the engine next time (even if you use electronics with the engine off briefly) and extends the battery’s life
This 3100829 alternator is only suitable for Brilliance h330 - incorrect matching means electrical failure:
Suitable for these: all Brilliance H330 models (matching engine size, electrical requirements and mounting points - confirmed with VIN).
Not suitable for these
Other glorious models: such as H230, V3 or h530, different engine layouts, power requirements, or pulley sizes (the alternator cannot be connected or provide sufficient power).
Non-huaguang vehicles: Even if the voltage is matched, their installation brackets and belt systems are different (no functional matching; may damage the engine belt).
H330 with modified engine: The aftermarket engine upgrade changed the power demand or belt setting - the original alternator couldn't keep up (resulting in power shortage).
Installation and Maintenance (Professional Recommendation - Involving Engine Operation)
Installation: Mechanical knowledge required (45-60 minutes)
Replacing this type of generator requires working with the engine belt - it's best to leave it to a professional:
Preparation: Turn off the H330 engine and disconnect the battery (to avoid electric shock). Remove the engine hood (if any) to touch the alternator at the front of the engine.
Disassemble the old alternator: Loosen the engine belt tensioner and remove the belt from the alternator pulley. Unplug the electrical connectors (one for the power supply and one for the regulator), and remove the bolts that fix the alternator to the engine bracket. Pull out the old alternator.
Install the new alternator: Install 3100829 on the engine bracket, tighten the bolts, and reconnect the electrical connectors. Put the engine belt back onto the pulley and adjust the tensioner (make sure the belt is tight and does not slip).
Test: Reconnect the battery, start the engine, and check the voltage with a multimeter (it should be 13.5-14.5V). Turn on all electronic devices (lights, AC, radios) and make sure the power supply remains stable.
Maintenance: Simple checks to prevent malfunctions
Check the belt tension annually: The belt is loose and stuck on the pulley of the alternator (resulting in low power); Tightening the belt wears out the pulley (shortening the service life of the alternator). If necessary, let professionals make the adjustments.
Check the electrical connections: Inspect the wiring plugs of the alternator for corrosion every six months (if the wiring rusts and causes intermittent power supply, clean it with a wire brush).
Listen to a strange sound: A shrill scream coming from the engine compartment indicates that the belt is sliding on the alternator pulley; The grinding sound indicates the wear of internal components (please replace the alternator as soon as possible).
Test battery voltage: If the battery frequently runs out of power (even after replacement), the alternator may not be charged - ask a mechanic to test the output of the alternator.
