[QUOTE="jarance, post: 449231, member: 21"] Recon mean that the alternator previously have some problem. Could be faulty rectifier bridge, worn out slip ring or carbon brush. The workshop will take the faulty alternator to a wireman for repair. He will change whatever part that is faulty and hence it is considered recon. Usually recon unit comes with 3 to 6 months warranty. Chop shop are USED part from car that are taken off the road. If the part are from Japan, then they are quite reliable but it depend on your luck. Usually recon unit comes with 1 to 2 weeks warranty. [/QUOTE]
