Alternator DIY

[kristian]

HI,

I just found out that my alternator was bad. I bought one online today from Autozone and I will have it in two days. I tried to goto DIY to find a article about doing the job, but I could not find any.

Does anybody have a link to replacing an alternator on a

1999 Carrera 4 (63 000 Miles)

Thanks

Kristian

There's an alternator DIY here:

You can also go to 'Search' and enter

+alternator +replace

It will pull all the threads that may be pertinent.

Regards,

Alex

be careful of the coolant hoses that go into/out of the water pump. They have brittle black plastic connectors inside that will break and then have to replace...not to mention pulling out the broken and brittle nipples from the hoses. PITA.
