How to find out alternator current Amper?

Post by c4tobe »

Hey,

I want to order online a new Aux belt. To choose the right belt length I need to know if my alternator is 80A or 120A?
How can I find it out?

(I have a Citroen C4 hatch, 1.4 Petrol, 88hp, year 2004, with A/C)

Thanks

The belt size is often visible in painted lettering on the smooth side of the belt, getting the thing to stop in a legible position is another matter :)
BXs since 1993 built 1.9 TZD turbo, got a S2 Xantia estate, brilliant car! 2013, Xantia HDI LX 110 2000 new car with 122,000, l C2 HDI Rusty rocket, C3 Picasso HDI new to me.
