1993 NISSAN MAXIMA HOW CHANGE ALETERNATOR - 1993 Nissan Maxima

Loosen the bolts near the alternator,there should be 3 or 4 13-14mm screws that needs loosening..once done the belt will feel loose,then get a metal rod and move the alternator to make the belt even more loose, then the rest is quite self explanatory..Remember to disconnect the electrical connection to the alternator...Good luck.

Suggest replacing all the belts also. 1st belt, remove coolant reservoir. Loosen the pulley next to the res. then there is a tension bolt behind it. get under the car, the alternator is right there on the passenger side. possible under a small shield. Loosen all the bolts on the alternator, then there is a tentioner on the alternator. Loosen that, remove belt, then take out the rest of the bolts, along with the plug and the ground wire to the alternator. for the P/S belt, loosen the other pulley 14mm, and then the tention bolt is another 12mm.
