Is the alternator not working anymore? Let’s look at removing the damaged part from inside the engine bay. Lift the bonnet and secure it, locate the battery and disconnect the terminals. Remove the wheel and the wheel arch liner to access the alternator.

Unscrew the bolts with a socket wrench, then unscrew all the securing bolts of the alternator. Once the removal is complete, simply pull it out of the engine bay. Prepare to install the new part.

After replacement, reconnect the terminals to the battery and test the alternator's operation.
