Mercury Voltage Regulator provides protection to the electrical system by maintaining the output of the alternator constant to ensure that batteries are charged and electronic equipment is not overloaded. Mercury, which began its life in 1938, was a lineup that was sought after with its soft ride, highly appealing appearance, and spacious cabins, and gave its drivers what was both smoother than a budget car yet not luxury bills and thus a calmer ambiance that lent the line a lively appearance and solid worth that lasted a decade or two while Cougars and Grand Marquis commanded driveways. Even when production came to a stop in 2011, the brand continued to feel the positive vibe of its go-anywhere image and affordable cost of doing business, and all the Mercury showrooms at one time were insinuating that there was an unidentified Voltage Regulator lurking in the shadows, and that long trips would be just as safe with its soft seats and wide glass making the long miles seem like a few miles. Instead of using the old mechanical Voltage Regulator, Mercury drivers are now installing solid-state control that switches thousands of times a second, cutting off heat and waste and turning on full field current once the volts drop and off as soon as the cells are topped off. The new solid units install within the alternator and hence fewer wires rattle loose, and the onboard computer in a Mercury keeps track of system demand and hence instructs the Voltage Regulator to push through only the amount of juice required, i.e., dim lights at idle and volts run away on stretches of highway. Replacement of a large contact point box with an electronic Voltage Regulator also eliminates flicker, eliminates overcharge blues, and enables vintage coupes to ride with modern reliability.
