Remember to take the old alternator when installing the new one to make sure that the new or repaired version looks like it, has the same terminals, and the same identification numbers. Most new and remanufactured alternators do not include a pulley so inquire about the policy of the shop concerning the transfer of the pulley, some will provide this free. In the case of 2001-2005 V6s, disconnect the negative battery cable, remove the engine cover and air filter housing, unscrew the accessory drive belt, unscrew the alternator without disconnecting the electrical connector and battery cable. On V6's (as of 2006) and later, proceed accordingly, such as have the car raised, the air intake duct removed, various components disconnected then open up the design of the alternator by unscrewing the various printed plates and attaching a nut to the screwdriver. The location of the alternator is noted as being on the lower right side of the engine block, and on 2002 four-cylinders; the negative battery cable must be disconnected, the vehicle raised, and the engine under-cover and drive belt unbolstered before the alternator can be removed. With 2003-2005 four-cylinder models, again disconnect battery, then intake duct then detach alternator by unbolstering. All models are the reverse of installation, that is removal.
