System Description

This vehicle's charging system uses one of the following two Bosch generators.
^ Bosch KCB2 - 105 Amperes RPO K68
^ Bosch NCB1 - 125 Amperes - RPO KG9 Vehicles without rear air conditioning (RPO C34), and/or heavy duty cooling (RPO V08) are equipped with the KCB2 (105 ampere) generator. Vehicles equipped with rear air conditioning (RPO C34), and/or heavy duty cooling (RPO V08) require the higher output NCB1 (140 ampere) generator.

The only serviceable components on the Bosch generators are the voltage regulator/brush kit and the generator rear cover.
