Model: Nissan Micra K13 - Years 2010-2017
Part: Alternator

In this video, you will see how to replace the alternator on a Nissan Micra K13: first, remove the wheel from the passenger side, then move the wheel arch liner to access the auxiliary belt and tensioner, where there is a 13 mm nut to loosen until reaching the pulley. Here, the presenter shows a diagram of how the poly-V belt is arranged to better understand where to loosen the pulley. Below, you can see the hole where the alternator is located. The presenter shows what has been removed to understand how it is made. You can find the part, for example, on Amazon with code B00CVZMRHG, priced at £110.00, including delivery charges. For a more comfortable job, it may be helpful to remove the radiator support, but this is not strictly necessary. Then reconnect the electrical contact by reversing the process.
