Then you should also check out your stator - if the R/R is that bad, there is a good chance it may have taken the stator with it. Much greater expense unfortunately if that
is the case.
Also check out your stator cables which may have burned in the process.
Your 02 should have a retrofit stator to regulator cable - the original was under-rated and subject to recall. You should have a stand-alone cable that is separate from the integrated harness, if it has been executed.
