My local Mechanic tried to tell me it was $650 to replace it, $300 being from labor, to do what? Unplug and unscrew 3 things? FOH. I Appreciate you guys big time. Love what you do
$3 to unscrew the things, $297 to know where
Used this vid to replace my first ever alternator. Was a great success. Took me about an hour to do. Thanks so much saved me a few hundred dollars!!
Me right now to change my first one lol
No better feeling than successfully fixing your vehicle...
@@seekone310 n trusting cause its u working not some lying mechanics that just want money
I'm not a mechanic, but this video helped me a lot to change my alternator, on my own. I'm very happy with the result.
Thank you for the great video.
Just changed the alternator on my 2007 Camry.
Bought part at O'Reilly for $225 (remanufactured, with life time warranty)
MSRP of official Toyota part is $400.
I suspect mechanic would have charged 1/2- 1 hour so around 100.
Gave me an opportunity to check the belt.
I appreciated your listing all the socket sizes needed.
Thank you! Great video. I installed my alternator myself this weekend with your guidance "#female" 💞
Righteous
Wow ..did you have tension the belt or was it just take and off and put back on as per the video
Def going to replace alternator for my 09 camry. Always love you guy’s content.
Not as hard as i thought thanks guys keep the videos coming im learning more and more how to repair my own car thanks to u guys
Thanks to your video I just changed my alternator.
Took me some hour and a half but saved decent amount of the money.
Greetings from Australia
First time I’ve looked forward to doing an alternator. Thanks 1A!
out of like the 20 videos i watched, this way by far the most professional, easy to follow video. much appreciated.
I replaced my own alternator after watching this video. Thank you @1AUTO
Very nice video...I love that back ground music but I'm gonna need more cow bell....
I appreciate the easy steps and the invaluable tips. I will now replace my noisy alternator. Thanks!
what noise? high pitched squealing bearing?
Best video out there on this ! And he names everything used in the video
On my 2010 Camry 4 cylinder, the sockets to relieve the belt tension, and for both the lower as well as the upper bolt holding the alternator to the car, were all 14mm (no 19mm or 12mm ones).
Way easier than I thought, great video. Thanks!
You make it look so easy! I'll forward this clip to my friend so he can do it for me 😂. Thank you!
For anyone wondering this should be labeled for the 4 cylinder models only
I have the 2.5L so it was a little different, but the video still help immensely.
I have the 2.5 too. How was this different ?
Just did this on my 07 Camry. It's so easy to get in and get out!
Thank you very much, I was able to save $200. I followed it step by step!

Thanks for posting. Very helpful. Just to confirm, did you say the top 14mm bolt is torqued to 38 ft/lbs and the bottom 12mm bolt torqued to 16ft/lbs? Thanks.
Yep, I just checked the Toyota service manual, and that's what it says
Thanks, this was helpful. There was a difference, however, with the pulleys in a 2009 2.4 Camry (Australian made). The alternator pulley in this model has a raised edge or lip, making it impossible to fit the belt to it last. But the two silver center pulleys had flat edges and it was far easier to take off the front wheel and remove a hatch in the wheel arch. This made the rear, air-con and silver pulleys easier to access and it was then quite easy to fit the new serpentine belt (two person job though). So the new serpentine belt was fitted last on the rear center silver pulley.
It also was very handy to draw the layout of serpentine belt before removal as well!
Great video! Clear and concise.
Thank you.
+Bob D Thank you for your feedback!
This help me and it wasn't hard. When you have the right tools it makes everything easier. I would recommend serpetine tool belt.
+Bruce McPherson Thanks for the feedback!
Thanks for the demo. I am going to do my first alternator replacement using this video

i hear a high pitched noise when i hit the gas. Is this the alternator bearing?
More Cowbell in your videos please! ❤😂
Thank you for posting this video, it was very helpful.
Very nice. Thank you.. Just too scared I might not be able to put the belt back on correctly if it comes off loose of any other pulleys in the back..
Great video!, I will try to replace it myself now.
Thanks for the share. This will be my first time doing this. How important is the torque wrench? Is it vital, or could I do without it?
You can do without it just crank them as tight as you can without stripping the bolt head. You don’t want the bolts to back out while you’re driving or else you will be
f-ked.
wife's camry alternator went dead today, local place wanted $700 to do this. ridiculous went ahead and bought the part myself. Thanks for the vid looks easy as hell and def not worth $500 in service.
My wife's camry died today! Trying to figure if it's the alternator or the battery but wanted to be informed if it was indeed the alternator. Where did you purchase your new alternator?
Great video thanks
Might be changing my too, appreciate this nice video
Mike, Is this demo for a 4 cylinder? There is no way without disconnecting a whole mess of stuff to reach the lower bolts etc on a V6 version, unless I am missing something in your demo.
this video helps me alot thank you. just wondering where can i get replacement wire harness in 2mins 27sec went to dealer they have no part number and local autopart shop unsure also
This video was a lot of help and helped me greatly in fixing this issue...Thank You!!!

The video is great! HOWEVER, its a bit unrealistic. I just attempted changing the alternator and that main top bolt, might as well be cemented on. In this video, the guy loosens it in 2 seconds, If its an old car, its going to be absolutely plastered on there. Wish I had known that - Im now researching how to get that bolt off.
Do you have to use a memory saver before disconnecting the battery.. the instructions said I do?
This is not the 3.5 video I was hoping for😅
I'm confused. You have a video on the 5th gen Camry, '02-'06 and another for '07-'11. Why is this video '06-'11?
My brand new 2017 alternator just went bad after only use of two years it's a $600 repair here in Arizona. I seen a lot of people say that the Toyota Camry's have a charging problems 2014 and up
I hope you were able to resolve this! :)
Amazing video 🙏
Ty for the help first one done ✅
Godbless I needed this
Thanks for checking us out. 1aauto.com +joe marin
Hello , im new to attempting on my fixing my own car problems , what is that tool called ?
my old bracket (the one at 5:20) pretty much stuck to the old alternator. can I zip tie the cable to some other place?
Thank you soo much!!
He put the ratchet at the wrong angle on the tensioner pulley TWICE.
Note: When pulling the tensioner pulley, start at an angle so as the handle of the ratchet doesn’t interfere with removing or replacing the belt.
You learn when you watch it several times. Better than paying someone to do the work for you.
What engine is this
Bonito video gracias
I tried to follow these directions for a 2005 Camry 4-cylinder and everything was fine except one problem: you don't pull on the belt tensioner. You push on it, as currently explained in another video that includes this year. When I tried to pull it, I broke the 19mm tensioner bolt off, so will now have to replace the tensioner unit.
Legend has it that you can slide the belt off of the water pump idler, but does one simply slide the belt back?
I have sheared 2/2 bosses. Some troll claimed that the guy who posted the first video I watched needed to watch a couple of videos to see the right way to remove the belt. I have watched 4 videos without finding this magic secret, which of course he wouldn't share.
You should watch the video for the older generation Camry. This one is for years 2006-2011.
My Toyota Camry 2009 was made June 2009. Is mine a 80amp or 130 amp?
My wire has corrosion, the 1 to the left of the oil dip stick. Any suggestions on replacing that wire. Links info would be appreciated!
+JJ Walker We do not currently carry this wire, but would suggest checking www.partsgeek.com or eBay motors. 1aauto.com
Does anyone know what the name of the cable is that is top center at 2:54 that is right above the end of the socket and has the two wires coming from behind the connector?
I cannot remove the belt ..... I push down as far as I can and even adjust my ratchet, side to side, up and down and no matter how hard I push down, I never get enough room to remove the belt
I can get only the top part about half or 3/4 of the way off but the bottom half of the belt wont budge. Im tired ajd cant do it and can't afford a mechanic
Will this work for Avalons?
I’ve totally inconnected the alternator and it won’t come out...rotates but don’t come out of its place
Does anyone know what the cord at 2:43 is called I need a new one
you should state in your title if it was a 4 cylinder or a V6, to avoid any confusion.

OK people not a bad video but kind of misinformation. You will need a serpentine belt tool because the video and this one show shows them using a what looks like a 3/8 ratchet the only way you’re getting a 3/8 inch ratchet down there with that 14 😢mm socket is to take a bandsaw and cut to make it fit
Thank you
+Soy Cabron Thanks for checking us out! 1aau.to/m/Shop-1AAuto-c
Thank you!! But make an effort to get to the harder to see stuff, like the lower alternator bolt and the tensioner bolt
Hi
I where is the lock for the electrical connector?
+Bader Bilal Thanks for checking us out!
what size engine the 2.4L or 2.5L?
2.4
Its done the same way
is this the 4 cyl or 6 cyl?
4
You sure it’s 19mm. I got this universal socket but doesn’t fit in.
Don't use universal sockets!
Will alternator from 2003 Camry fit 2009 Camry (2.4l)?
+Adam Shepherd Hello! We do not currently carry the alternator for either model year Camry, and because of this, we don't have the correct answer to your question. 1aauto.com
it might...my dad put a rebuilt alternator from a 2004 in our 2009 camry
The Radiator hose is off. Did you have to remove the fan to make room to get it out?
No need to remove fan.
To who it concerns: If you are posting video - post the specifics like engine size this is a 2.4 and I have a 3.5 NO help at all and a much easier fix. Thanks for trying.
Can yall do one for the v6 camery se 09
+itsmyleggz We'll keep this request in mind in the event that we need to make this repair in the future. Thanks for watching. 1aauto.com
Don't forget to torque bolts. That's the mistake I made.
0 that looks like a four cylinder what about the V6
Disconnect the !?!?WHAT?!?! battery terminal, mtfr.
dude charged me 60 for this, now I know better for next time.
That's a fair price for an hour of labor
@@DC-ct8tv this is done in 20 mins
You gotta account for his drive time there, taking out his tools, putting away his tools... One hour minimum is polite
I know a guy named Crazy Jay that charges $60 an hour and one mechanic that refused to touch my car. He charges $75--if he will work at all.
It seems like everywhere else is $90-$100 or more and almost everyone rounds up to the nearest hour. Imagine my frustration when a shop called me 45 minutes after I dropped off my vehicle and charged me for 3 hours of labor.
Main power cable ? You mean the ground lol, but great video ! Thank you
Definitely not the the ground, that's the positive cable, the alternator is grounded by the bracket that it bolts to on the engine.
That is a power cable
Plz be more specific next time n say 4cyl not 6 bc its totally different..!!
exactly no thumbs up because I am looking for a 3.5 and not the 2.4.
