There is a guy in the past 6 months who bought a regulator for about half the price of a new alternator, but it did not fix the problem. I can’t recall whether he identified another issue, but he ended up buying a new alternator as well. Trying the brush change would be worthwhile to some since it is much less than a regulator, but if it does not work, you are doing the job over again. At 10 years, I am OK with buying new parts.
