    Thank you so much! This worked great! The only thing you didn't mention in the video was the plastic cover that blocks access to the engine. You need a small (1/2 in) rachet to remove it. Otherwise all great! My mom and I replaced ours in less than a half an hour! Thanks again!

    You may want to check the motor mounts to see if one of them could be bad. Hope this helps you out.

    If you get a check engine light, pull the code and see what it points to. You may want to have the alternator tested to see if it is working correctly. It's not uncommon to get a bad rebuilt, it can happen.

    @prieto108 You may want to try to charge the battery. If you have plenty of power the starter solenoid may be bad.

    The AMPS and the way it mounts might be different.

  • @altpath
    @altpath 12 років тому +1

    @prieto108, that has happened to me. Usually it's because of a weak connection of the ground cable on the battery. If you can wiggle or pull off the terminal with your hand, it's not tight enough and the car will only click. Tighten it and it'll work.

    BTW you don't have to take the belt all the way off if you don't want to. You can just pull it off the alternator pulley and let it rest in place.

    Good job but there was no guidance on how to disconnect the wire harness (3:43 to 3:54). The instructor’s hand covered the disconnect and there was no verbal guidance. Where does one insert the screwdriver? At what angle? I cracked the plastic on the alternator being removed - fortunately it was being replaced.

    Good video. Very efficient, but, my 1999 tensioner is a 1/2 drive socket. Of course, I don't have one anymore, so my son is coming up after work to install it for me. Thank you sir again.....

    I have a 2007 Lincoln Town Car Designer serirs and I wanted to know what is the standanrd amp for the alternator and if I could purchase a app that has different amp power. I'm looking to purchase a 130 amp and wanting to know will it still work on my Town Car if the town car requires a 95 amp alternator
