To remove the alternator of your Mercedes E-Class, you need to follow a few steps. First of all, make sure the engine is cold and the car is turned off. Disconnect the negative battery cable to avoid short circuits.

Locate the alternator in the engine compartment. It will be mounted on a bracket and connected to the engine with a belt.

Remove the belt using a wrench to release the tension from the belt tensioner. Next, disconnect the electrical cables connected to the alternator, making sure to keep track of where they were connected.

Once all the cables have been removed, unscrew the bolts that secure the alternator to the bracket. Be careful to keep the alternator in place while removing the last bolts to prevent it from falling.

Once the alternator has been removed, you can replace it with a new one or make the necessary repairs.

Once the tires have been properly inflated, you can turn on the instrument cluster and navigate through the menu until you find the option that indicates tire pressure: if this screen shows the new values, the light will turn off; otherwise, you will need to drive for a few miles so that the sensors can read the new values and turn off the light afterward.
