7. Remove ground harness mounting bolt.
8. Remove alternator mounting bolt (lower), and then alternator mounting bolt (upper).
9. Remove A/T fluid cooler tube (1) from fan shroud (2).
10. Move A/T fluid cooler tube (1) and secure work space.
11. Remove alternator assembly
(2) from underneath the vehicle.
INSTALLATION
Note the following items, and then install in the reverse order of removal.
CAUTION:
 Be careful to tighten “B” terminal nut carefully.
 Install alternator, and check tension of belt. Refer to EM-20, "
Checking".
 For this model, the power genera tion voltage variable control system that controls the power gener-
ation voltage of the alternator has been adopted. Therefore, the power generation voltage variable
control system operation inspectio n should be performed after replacing the alternator, and then
make sure that the system operates normally. Refer to CHG-17, "
Inspection Procedure".
 When installing alternator br acket, tighten mounting bolts in
numerical order as shown in the figure.

WARNING:
Be sure to perform the these steps when engine is stopped.
 Check that the indicator (C) (notch on fixed side) of each auto-tensioner is within the possible use range (A).
NOTE:
 Check the each auto-tensioners indication when the engine is cold.
 When new drive belts is installed, the indicator (notch on fixed side) should be within the range (B) in the\
figure.
 Visually check all drive belts for wear, damage or cracks.
 If the indicator (notch on fixed side) is out of the possible use range or drive belts are damaged, replace drive
belts.
