    Probably the best video out for this application. Minor edit: step 1, disconnect the battery.

    This is a great tutorial video. Thank you for sharing. Tips: I was working on my 2012 Hyundai accent and the only way to remove the alternator after remove all bolts is using a big screw driver and place it underneath the alternator and slowly pry it up ( I was rocking the alternator back and forth and upward for 15 minutes with no help)
    My car symptom: Battery light in the dashboard randomly flickering.

      Yes I thought about prying it too. It was very stubborn to get out lol

      @@EnoughAboutCars you video didn't show that it was stubborn to get out - would have been very helpful

    That was deceptively simple lol I was expecting some skipped parts or something. Liked and subbed. 👍

    Do you need a belt tensioner or should the belt be fine

    Did anyone have problems pulling the alternator out after removing all the bolts??

    • @EnoughAboutCars
      @EnoughAboutCars  Рік тому +1

      Yes, it’s usually stuck in there. It will take some time but keep at it. Eventually it will free itself.

      Yes, this is why I'm watching these videos. I thought I missed something. Guess I will have to pry it off.

    Belt should just slip on?!!!!!!. I had the alt push all the way to the engine block. Getting the belt over the water pump pulley was extremely difficult. Kia couldn't spend a few bucks and put in a spring tensioner?

    • @onenikkione
      @onenikkione Рік тому

      did you purchase an OEM belt or one from the local auto parts store? sometimes the belts the auto parts store says will fit can be very tight even if the car has a spring tensioner, I learned this from years of working on cars.

    Skipped removing bracket and bolts holding the alternator to the block.
