The Function of the Voltage Regulator is to regulate the output voltage of the alternator to protect the battery and the electrical system in a Ford explorer vehicle. This is achieved by comparing the battery voltage along with the systems requirement with the field current that is supplied to the alternator rotor by the regulator and thus maintaining adequate charging voltage of between 13.5 and 14.5 V. All models of Explorer up to the previous generation used mechanical voltage regulators that were upgraded to electronic solid-state types. These solid-state regulators can turn 'on' and 'off' at a higher frequency than the mechanical regulators making charges on the charging systems to be precise. Hence in recent models of Ford Explorers, the voltage regulating function is embedded in the PCM, and efficiency in terms of charging system is dependent on battery temperature, load on the engine and total electrical demand.
