Help. I have gotten three voltage regulators from the normal Porsche Parts suppliers and none fit. The distance from edge of case to the first spade is .25 inches on my original regulator. The catalogs all show same regulator for 911, 914, and 914-6. The ones I have received vary from .4 from the edge to .65 from the edge all with same PN so will not fit in area to plug into. Anyone know the actual part to buy? My original has numbers on it in this order 0 190 601 006 AD 1/14V. The replacements show up as PN 901 603 206 02 Yes I can rewire, or maybe take both apart and move the guts, but trying to keep original and not have a wire harness to convert to get wires to new regulator. Thank you for your help. Tim

I have to finish this off for posterity. The problem was apparently just a weak battery. While the battery is low, it is drawing more current than the alternator can keep up with. So the voltage there is much lower than at D+. After a week of charging and driving the battery is fully charged and the lamp is off. I switched back to the original regulator and it's all good - for now.
