The engine computer is also the voltage regulator.
One can test an alternator while it's still in the car as long as the car runs. Use a volt meter across the battery terminals while the vehicle is running. The volt meter should read 13 to 14 volts in a 12 volt system. If it's lower your alternator isn't charging sufficiently. Have a friend push the accelerator and hold the car at 2000 rpms and test it again. You might try this at higher rpms as well depending on where your vehicle redlines. The voltage should not exceed 14 volts; if it does your voltage regulator is bad.
Under the headlight on the drivers side (you must remove the headlight first).
The way to test an alternator is to take it out and take it to a parts store, most will test it for free. If you want to test your alternator yourself you will need a volt meter. Start the car and have someone rev the motor to 2000 rpms and put your volt meter across the battery terminals ( pos to pos, neg to neg ). You should read 13.5 to 14 volts. If the reading is higher the voltage regulator is bad. If the reading is lower your alternator is not charging the battery sufficiently.
rear brakes froze to the drum..gotta love the snow Your transmission is done, it will have to either be replaced or rebuilt. Neither of which is cheap or easy. Sorry! Ixnayer

The engine computer is the voltage regulator.
The engine computer is also the voltage regulator.
it is internal to the pcm (engine computer)
It is on the pump, in the tank.
The PCM is the voltage regulator. It is on the firewall, passenger side.
The voltage regulator is located in the PCM if it is going out you have to replace the entire computer
the voltage regulator is located in the voltage regulator compartment
The engine computer is the voltage regulator.
The voltage regulator is inside the alternator.

Yes, the engine computer is the voltage regulator. It is not in the alternator.
