OEX Alternator 12V 80A Mitsubishi Style MXA234

The OEX Alternator MXA234 is a new 12V, 80A rotating electrical unit in Mitsubishi style, supplied as an each item for replacement applications that match the listed mounting and pulley details. It uses an internal regulator, a twin leg alternator mount, and a 4 groove pulley with a 55mm outside diameter.

This alternator is identified with Part No. MXA234 and Pin Code IR49. Key mounting measurements listed are 66mm inside mounting legs, 175mm mount centre to centre, a 9mm adjusting hole diameter, and an M10x1.25 / 10 pivot hole diameter. Those figures are the main checks to compare before ordering.

OEX lists this unit as suitable for Mitsubishi applications, and the fitment data also includes selected Citroen, Ford and Mazda models. Because alternators must match the mounting pattern, pulley style and electrical setup exactly, the part number and measurements should be checked against the removed unit and the vehicle application before purchase.

Application and Buying Notes

Before ordering, compare the vehicle’s existing alternator with the MXA234 details: 12V system voltage, 80A output, internal regulator, twin leg mount, and 4 groove pulley. The mounting measurements are just as important as the electrical rating, particularly the 66mm inside mounting legs, 175mm mount centre to centre, 9mm adjusting hole diameter, and M10x1.25 / 10 pivot hole diameter.

The pulley style needs close attention. This unit uses a 55mm outside diameter pulley with 4 grooves, so the belt arrangement on the vehicle must match. If the belt count, pulley offset or mounting ears differ from the original unit, the alternator may not suit even if the connector or engine family seems similar.

Fitment data supplied for this part includes Mitsubishi Cordia, Ford Laser, Mazda 121, Mazda 323 Astina and Citroen C5 applications, but those names alone are not enough to confirm installation. Alternators are commonly shared across different models and years, so the safest check is the part number MXA234 together with the mounting dimensions and regulator type.

The warranty listed is 3 years for passenger use and 1 year for commercial use. That is useful for understanding how the part is sold, but it does not replace a fitment check. If the removed alternator has a different mount arrangement, pulley section or regulator setup, confirm compatibility before fitting or driving the vehicle.

Before supply, the safest approach is to confirm the original unit details against the listed part number, voltage, output rating, mounting arrangement, and pulley configuration. That checking process is standard practice in the parts trade because visually similar units can still differ in service-critical ways.

For workshop, fleet, and equipment applications, accurate identification of part number MXA234 helps avoid unnecessary freight, additional labour, and vehicle or machine downtime. Where the application is not straightforward, the original unit, OEM reference, or workshop records should be used as the primary confirmation point.

OEX Alternator 12V 80A Mitsubishi Style. Part number MXA234 should be checked first. Listed voltage is 12. Listed output rating is 80. These details form the core reference points used by parts interpreters when confirming the correct replacement.

Mount style is Twin Leg. Regulator type is Internal. Pulley configuration is 4 Groove. Those physical and electrical details should line up with the original unit before the replacement is approved for fitment.

For part number MXA234, the normal identification sequence is part number, electrical rating, mounting arrangement, connector or terminal style, and pulley or drive details. Using those checkpoints helps confirm that the listed unit matches the service requirement rather than only looking similar.

For a alternator in workshop, fleet, trade, agricultural, or construction service, the listed voltage 12 and output 80 should be checked carefully. Incorrect selection can affect installation time, return freight, and equipment availability.

Compatibility note: Confirm fitment using part number MXA234, Pin Code IR49, the 12V 80A specification, and the mounting and pulley measurements before ordering.
