SEHNSUCHT Alternator 130A 12V for Honda 3.5L V6 - Pilot 2012-2015 / Odyssey 2011-2013 / Ridgeline 2012-2014, Aluminum Case, Copper

SEHNSUCHT 11573N is a new 130A, 12V replacement alternator engineered for Honda 3.5L V6 models (Pilot, Odyssey, Ridgeline) covering key OEM numbers.

If your Honda’s battery warning light, dimming lights, or accessory power issues point to a failing alternator, this SEHNSUCHT 11573N unit is built to match factory fit and electrical output while improving noise, heat and long-term reliability. It’s designed as a direct replacement for several OEM part numbers and fits the 3.5L V6 vehicles listed below. The housing uses aluminum alloy and the rotor/stator windings are 100% pure copper to support stable output and improved thermal performance.

Will this alternator fit my Honda Pilot, Odyssey, or Ridgeline?

Yes — the 11573N is specified to fit the Honda Odyssey (2011–2013) and the Honda Pilot (2012–2015) and Ridgeline (2012–2014) with the 3.5L V6 engine. Fitment aligns with common OEM replacement numbers so it installs in the same mounting points and electrical connections as the original unit.

• Compatible models: Odyssey 2011–2013 3.5L, Pilot 2012–2015 3.5L, Ridgeline 2012–2014 3.5L
• Direct replacement for parts: 104210-1240, 9764219-124, 31100-RV0-A01, CSJ24, 11573
• Same mounting pattern and plug connectors as factory units for straightforward swap

How does the 11573N perform electrically and mechanically?

This alternator provides 12 volts at a rated 130 amps with clockwise rotation and an 11:00 clock position, matching the electrical demands of modern accessory-loaded Hondas. The mechanical construction uses an aluminum alloy case and copper windings to reduce heat and keep output steady under load.

• Output: 12 V, 130 A to support high accessory loads and charging needs
• Rotation: Clockwise (CW) with 11:00 clock position for correct pulley alignment
• Construction: aluminum alloy case and 100% pure copper windings for heat dissipation and durability

What are the noise, durability, and warranty-related benefits?

The SEHNSUCHT alternator is engineered to be quieter and longer-lasting than many aftermarket units thanks to improved materials and assembly. The design reduces electrical and mechanical noise by up to 7 dB versus some competing alternators, while thermal management helps extend service life.

• Quieter operation: up to 7 dB reduction in running noise
• Improved heat dissipation from aluminum housing to protect internal components
• High-quality copper windings reduce electrical losses and prolong lifespan

What should I expect during installation and maintenance?

Installation follows standard alternator replacement procedures and typically requires basic hand tools and battery isolation. No proprietary programming is required in most applications; simply match the mounting, belt routing and electrical connectors to the original alternator.

• Simple swap: direct-fit replacement with original-style connectors and bracket locations
• Check belt alignment and tension after installation for optimal pulley life
• Recommended: inspect battery and charging system to ensure proper operation

Who is this for? The SEHNSUCHT 11573N alternator is aimed at owners and independent mechanics who need a reliable, cost-effective direct-replacement alternator for Honda 3.5L V6 vehicles from 2011–2015. It’s a good option for those who want improved noise control and thermal performance over basic remanufactured units while retaining OEM compatibility and straightforward installation.
