Moin,moin, I have a problem with the alternator from a Smart 450. The following, to the Smart of a friend of mine was the light engine dead, she was completely fixed and the housing also had a few fine cracks. I expanded the old alternator and we ordered a new one. And today I installed the new alternator. Well, now the problem, the new alternator is not loading and the battery lamp in the fitting does not go out either. It is a Smart 450, built in ’99 , 0.6 liters , 45 Ps… The old alternator was a 65 ampere and had 3 connections, once M6 and twice M5. But it was only a cable connected and it was on the M6 bolt (B+) The new light engine is a 75 ampere,bischen more strongly hurts. And the new light machine also has 3 connections again, once M6 and twice M5. I have the cable again to the M6 bolt (B+) exactly as it was previously with the old light engine. But unfortunately I can’t also use the new light engine.

Hello guys! I’m new here and hope I ask the question in the right area!? My Smart 451, Built ’07, 84 HP no longer starts. When I turn on the ignition, he starts to control the gearbox in the back (or whatever he does there), then he stops and it starts to beep (or whistle, is difficult to describe). When I try to start the engine, it clicks (as always) in the fuse box and somewhere in the engine range. It sounds like he continues to pull electricity and exert himself until it clicks again after a few seconds and this “effort” stops again! But unfortunately the engine doesn’t jump on. I already tried to find something out in the net, but unfortunately I didn’t get flush. Brake lights light, battery I removed and installed again, fuses are in order. I have photographed the part that beeps (or whistles). Maybe you can tell me 1. how this part is called and/or give a 2. tip, if/how can I fix the problem?

By chance I discovered today the crooked “stick” on the hinge, which fell immediately when touching. Does Smart really not use winter-resistant material here? For a slightly over 1.5-year-old vehicle very dislocating! Only because I planned a workshop visit tomorrow anyway, I get a little excited but if you had to go back to the workshop for such a small***, it would make me very angry (time is money after all).
