Hi,

Are you sure there's a alternator in the HCH, I've read that it's the electric motor that replace the alternator. I really don't think that there's any alternator in the HCH. You can verify this by going to majectic honda and try to locate the alternator. I know there's a starter in case something fails, but I'm quite sure there's not alternator, I mean it's replace by the electric motor.
