My ford
explorer 95 has had very Little troubles through its life the only time it let
me down was one time i was driving home from work and suddenly a CLACK and
grinding metal noise came from the engine straight away i pulled over and had a
look at what was going on.
I opened
the bonnet and found that the alternator had crapped out not the band or
anything else just the alternator I guess it was the bearings that just had
enough.
Anyways it
was an easy fix just bought a new one gave in the old one to get a better price,
all you need is a 13mm wrench to remove the band, and before having a go at the
alternator disconnect the ground of the battery next go ahead and disconetc the
harness and any wire going to the alternator. Now its just a matter of removing
the old again ist a 13mm wrench to remove the 3 bolts that hold it in place
watch out for the spacers under the alternator theres one on each bolt, remove
it and place the new one straight in there don’t forget to put the spacers in
and tighten everything back in. that was pretty much it hoocked up the battery
and was on my way.
