    @tbakowsky , what is the solution for the green round 3-pin connector that keeps falling out of its socket on the 355 alternator?

    New connector?
    Different connector?
    A custom retaining bracket?

    There's one I haven't delt with in a while..I used to replace the entire connector with one from a Lexus..because they shared the same voltage regulator. God willing some how I remember the model though. I think it was the sc 300 or 430 I think??

    Hi, if you decide to get a new original one:
    Ferrari part# is 142716.
    This part is not listed on any parts diagram but it is available from Ferrari as a single replacement part.
