The Volvo 262 alternator is an electrical component in the car's charging system that generates electricity to power the vehicle's electrical components and recharge the battery. It is specific to the Volvo 262 model, which was produced from 1976 to 1981. The alternator uses a belt-driven rotor to create an electromagnetic field, which induces an alternating current in the stator windings. This current is then rectified by a diode bridge and regulated by a voltage regulator to produce a consistent output voltage.
