How Do I Remove the Alternator from a 1997 Honda CR V

Removing the alternator from the engine compartment in your 1997 Honda CR-V may be necessary if the alternator is bad or if you need to access another part of the engine sitting in front of it. The alternator is located on the right side of the engine and sits down low, near the crankshaft pulley. If you suspect there is a problem with the alternator, you can have it bench-tested at most auto parts stores once it is removed from the car.

Instructions

1

Remove the retaining bolt from the negative battery cable end where it meets the battery with a wrench. Remove the cable from the battery and isolate it from the battery terminals.

2

Locate the two electrical connectors on the rear of the alternator. Unplug the four-prong connector and set it aside. Remove the nut from the terminal on the back of the alternator then remove the battery wire from the terminal. Set the battery wire off to one side and thread the nut loosely onto the terminal for safekeeping.

3

Remove the lock nut on the upper mounting bolt at the front of the alternator with a socket and ratchet then slide the upper bolt out of the alternator.

4

Unscrew the lock nut on the lower mounting bolt with the socket and ratchet, push the alternator towards the engine and remove the belt from the pulley. Slide the lower mounting bolt out of the alternator and mounting bracket then lift the alternator out of the engine compartment.
