2012 Toyota Camry Alternator Replacement (4 cylinder )

[@JR262133]

I like how we're all here near the same time changing our alternators. Mines got 150k miles on it.

[@jbautista713]

Mine is 204,000 😢

[@joehernandez83]

207k 😂

[@jonathanroa4655]

155000

[@NoJokesHere]

Nevermind...it was my battery...haha

[@baytrader669]

Just did mine today, with 207000.

[@napsterbater]

I knew it looked pretty easy on this car. Your video confirms it. Appreciate it. Going to have to do this tomorrow as the alternator just died on our 2012 Camery 4cyl

[@napsterbater]

Forgot to update this comment. Yep work like a champ. The only thing I should note is getting that I'll call it an activation wire clip off the alternator. On the driver's side of that clip is a sort of button that will release it, make sure you are pushing that when you're pulling on it to remove it.

@@napsterbater thank you for this tip

[@Aguilaraxel320]

@@napsterbater what symptoms were you getting?

[@napsterbater]

@@Aguilaraxel320 we had a rather loud noise coming from under the hood at first that lasted about a week, for whatever reason couldn't really pinpoint the noise to the alternator itself, then it finally just died got low voltage even got a power steering warning as all of that is electric on this car.

@@napsterbater yes I will second this “2012 Camry se “ too here .. there’s noise , yes the steering and battery lights stay on the dash

How come replacing alternator took u like 5 hrs Does ur car is v6 engine? If your car is v6 engine i can tell you a secrete u can do it less then 3 hrs. Thank you for watching

[@geesixnine]

@@kimhoeunchhay4295 most like he didn't have the tools

[@michaelespeseth1158]

What is that grey clipped sensor at the top? I googled knock sensor but it didn't look like that. Just wondering what the plastic piece it clips to that screws into the engine is. The one with the single wire. Thanks!

[@nickherrock7855]

Thanks for the help!

[@kelleymariewarrenjbhuhninj9726]

What type of tools did you need? I have to replace mine tomorrow

[@0nly714]

What tools did you use Sir? Thank you for your response.

[@emekaifemenam7703]

Hi, my alternator seems good but my battery drains out. Please what could be the problem.

[@miguelmarcial9784]

Might be time for a new battery

[@emekaifemenam7703]

@@miguelmarcial9784 Battery was just changed. Can AC drain battery?

[@miguelmarcial9784]

@@emekaifemenam7703 not it shouldn’t

[@percussive57]

The radio was draining my caddie battery. Factory, but after markets do it most often.

[@bfishlike8307]

I assume it’s fixed now, but for others that might read it, testing at both the battery AND at the alternator to see what DC voltage it’s producing will tell you a lot. You’ll want to to be 13.5+ If it’s borderline then take it to a parts store and they can load test it.

[@jbautista713]

Why does A1 auto make it look so complicated? 😅 Thank you for your video

Soooo easy for $140 labor wtf !! I’m becoming a mechanic as of today !

[@kraquin]

You might change the title of the video to include "4 cylinder" because a 6 cylinder camry alternator replacement takes hours not minutes.
