First, using a 13 mm spanner, loosen the bolt located on the left side of the alternator. Remove the nut on the left side with the same spanner and disconnect the two electrical cables.

At this point, you can completely remove the first bolt on the left. The last lower bolt can be removed using a 17 mm spanner.

Carefully lift the alternator from its position, taking care not to damage nearby components. To reassemble, follow the reverse procedures, fit the belt, and ensure it is tensioned correctly for smooth operation.
