OEX Alternator 12V 90A Mitsubishi Style MXA2018

The OEX MXA2018 is a new 12V alternator rated at 90 amps and listed as Mitsubishi style, with a pad mount, 6 groove pulley and ECU voltage control. It suits Mitsubishi units and is supplied as a single each item, with a clutch style pulley fitted and an adaptor noted to suit HXK-32 and HXK-24 applications.

Key physical details matter with an alternator, especially when matching the mount and drive arrangement. This unit has a 60mm mount leg thickness, 10mm pivot hole diameter, 10mm adjusting hole diameter and 175mm mount centre to centre, so those measurements should be checked against the vehicle or replacement unit before ordering.

For electrical matching, the alternator is 12 volts with a 90 amp power rating and a Field Control Unit regulator type. The listed pin code is IR29, and the note specifies ECU voltage control, which makes it important to confirm the charging system setup as well as the mechanical fit.

Application and Buying Notes

When comparing an alternator for replacement, start with the part number MXA2018 and then check the physical measurements against the vehicle or the removed unit. The 60mm mount leg thickness, 10mm pivot hole, 10mm adjusting hole and 175mm mount centre to centre are the main mechanical checkpoints provided here, and they are just as important as the 12V 90A electrical rating.

The pulley and control setup also need attention. This alternator is listed with a 55mm pulley outside diameter, 6 groove pulley section, clutch style pulley and ECU voltage control, so it is not a case of matching only the body shape. If the vehicle uses a different pulley arrangement or control strategy, the unit may not be the correct replacement even if the mounting points appear similar.

For charging system work, confirming the regulator and connector details matters. The regulator type is listed as Field Control Unit and the pin code is IR29, which should be checked against the existing alternator or vehicle specification. If there is any doubt, compare the old unit carefully before fitting, especially on Mitsubishi applications and any vehicle shown in the fitment listing.

The weight is listed at 5.56kg, and the unit is supplied new rather than remanufactured. That can be useful when assessing handling, installation and expected condition on arrival, but the key decision should still come back to fitment, pulley style, and the vehicle’s charging control setup.

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 MXA2018 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.

Additional published details for cross-checking include Product Group 2 ALTERNATORS, Part No. MXA2018, Brand OEX, Description OEX Alternator 12V 90A Mitsubishi Style, Adjusting Hole Diameter 10, Pin Code IR29, Power Rating (Amp) 90, Pulley Section 6 Groove, Suits Unit Make Mitsubishi.

OEX Alternator 12V 90A Mitsubishi Style. Part number MXA2018 should be checked first. Listed voltage is 12. Listed output rating is 90. These details form the core reference points used by parts interpreters when confirming the correct replacement.

Mount style is Pad. Regulator type is Field Control Unit. Pulley configuration is 6 Groove. Those physical and electrical details should line up with the original unit before the replacement is approved for fitment.

For part number MXA2018, 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.

Compatibility note: Confirm compatibility using part number MXA2018, the Mitsubishi style pad mount, 12V 90A rating, 6 groove clutch style pulley, and the ECU voltage control note before ordering. Fitment should be checked against the vehicle’s existing alternator and mounting measurements rather than relying on appearance alone.
