10v Gauge Rectifier/Step Down

Postby AJSGSE1990 » Mon 29.06.2026, 06:45

Hello all, does anyone know what the 10v rectifier looks like? It's the one used to power the oil and boost pressure gauges.

Thank you.

Andrew.

It looks like a TO220 voltage regulator or transistor with a screw-on heat sink. It sits on the side of the cluster.
BUT don't replace it with a standard 10v regulator as the pinouts are different!

Found it thank you. Thought it might have some noise attenuators and diodes so was looking for a bit more.

Cheers,

Andrew.
