1992-1997 Cadillac Seville Alternator removal

This is very easy, but time consuming. Start by raising the car and put on two jack stands. Remove the battery. Then the upper splash shield,"the one that covers the radiator". Under the car remove the left front frame cover "it's about a foot square" under that plate is a core support plate to remove "this is a must the alt needs the room to drop out the bottom, it's about 3x6" unplug the radiator fan motors and remove the bolts and the fans pull out from the top, you will need to unbolt & move the air bag censor also push the radiator hose out of the way. Remove all the alt. Bolts "from the battery side. Then we are back under the car with an 18" extension and a socket on a swivel. This is for the nasty bolt on the back right. You need to fish the socket from the driver's side up between the A/C and engine block. The bolt on the left side of the back you will use a wrench from the topside and back the bolt all the way out, but it will stop at the heat shield don't worry it's out enough. There are two wires to unplug. A single wire you get from the top. Don't worry it looks like there should be more wires in the plug, but just one. The other wire you unbolt from under the car. To remove the belt you take a LARGE breaker bar with a half inch extension, stick it into the idler pulley and twist, you will have just enough room to remove the belt from the alt. Now the fun part, back under the car and pull the alternator out. You will battle with this for some time around the A/C and thru the space in the core support. I took mine down to the local rebuild shop "they do alt's and starters" this cost me $100.Put it back together just the same way you took it out. Two hours time. Good luck
