-- View BMW DiagramSee this part on the official exploded view→This is a genuine BMW alternator, part number 12 31 1 277 226. The number stamped on the part is 12311277226; BMW's catalog files it under the short number 1277226. You will find it on our Electrical shelf, under Alternator with motor and mounting. It supersedes the older numbers 1362466 and 1364405, so a part carrying any of them is the same part. BMW has since replaced it with 1277504.
BMW's catalog records no E36 or E46 it is fitted to; it belongs to other BMW models.
BMW draws it on 5 diagrams, among them Generator, individual parts (12_0172) and Generator, individual parts (12_0200). It weighs about 4.6 kg (10 lb).
We have not had one on the shelf yet. Request it and we will tell you when one comes off a car.
