Untouch the cable connected to the
Battery's negative terminal. During this process, keep your radio activation code ready if anti-theft security is installed. Cut and take off each electrical wire and connection point from the alternator. Taking it easy, undo the adjusting bolt for the alternator, the pivot bolt, pull the drivebelt off. Before you take the alternator out of the engine bay in any lntegra models, first loosen the driveaxle below by removing the bottom control arm from both the shock absorber fork and the steering knuckle, then separate the outer end of the left driveaxle from the wheel hub. Free the engine block support bearing for the intermediate shaft, remove the adjustment and pivot bolts, and lower the alternator from its place. Take your old alternator with you to buy a replacement, making sure the new one looks precisely the same with the same number of terminals in the same spots, with identical size and identification numbers. When buying a fresh or reconditioned alternator, check with the workshop first to see if they'll give you a free pulley along with it. To make sure your new alternator works fine, install it the same way you took it off. After that, adjust drivebelts and check charging power levels.
